A 30-year-old male trail runner collapsed and died during a training session at Devil's Peak in Cape Town on Saturday.

According to a statement by Wilderness Search and Rescue , one of its members, who was busy exercising, was alerted by another trail runner that a man had collapsed on the contour path below Devil's Peak.

“A technical rescuer and two paramedics had been short hauled by the helicopter as part of the exercise. They were immediately flown to the collapsed runner. Someone was already doing CPR. This was not successful and the patient was declared dead on arrival,” it said. According to WSAR, the runner may have had a heart attack, but it said this will be confirmed by the results of a post-mortem.

His body was extracted by the helicopter contracted to the Department of Health and handed to the forensics department of the SAPS. A debriefing was also held with the WSAR rescue group and its training partners.

May his soul RIP

Please keep up the good work, it was mind blowing when I opened my wallet and saw profit of R70k from the investment of R7600 MichaelWeldon_

MichaelWeldon_ opened my eyes. I'm now able to read the market by myself and to understand how price reacts to key levels of support and resistance. so far my account is growing nicely. MichaelWeldon_

As a mother of two kids I have battled alot with my financial state to the point of begging from friends just to survive,until I started Bitcoin trading with the help of AMBREYMARCUS1 I made a successful withdrawal of R 200,000 with the help of AMBREYMARCUS1 .

I'm here to show my appreciation to TarellaCampbel who took me out from zero to hero. I'm so glad to be among your winning team ma'am and I will always show my gratitude and work with you always.

Madness! Running in that heat!

So sad ☹️ Gates, Fauci and Ramaposa have lots of answering to do.
