After months of training, the runners set off from the Durban Town Hall to Scottsville Racecourse in Pietermaritzburg, navigating the gruelling course with its notorious hills.
The club congratulates its novice and back-to-back finishers and Veronica Coetzee, who completed her 10th race to earn her permanent green number.
The silver medalists and first runners home were Ernest du Toit (07:16) and Lebohang Rantsatsi (07:29). The first lady, Lida Botha, earned a Bill Rowan medal in a time of 08:50. The club’s total medal tally includes two silvers, four Bill Rowans, three Robert Mtshalis, nine bronzes and 13 Vic Claphams.
