Since winning MasterChef South Africa in 2013, Field Team member Kamini Pather has been making a name for herself as a cookbook author, television personality, and food blogger.


Behind the scenes, she's balanced the stress of her public life with running. Out on the roads and trails of Cape Town, Kamini finds solace on runs with her dog, Tuxedo, fueled by delicious snacks she packs with her. For Janji, Kamini created three recipes made for before, during, and after your runs.
