Corné Els is on a cross country journey on a tractor from Krugersdorp in Gauteng to Klapmuts in the Western Cape. Why? To raise funds for her daughter so she can participate in the Tug-of-War World Championships in Switzerland from August 31. Ryan gave her a call as she edged closer towards her destination:
