KAC prepares for The Soweto Marathon

Katlehong Athletic Club (KAC) held a 32km training run on October 14 to prepare for the great Soweto Marathon.

The run started from Mtsiri Corner in Ramokonupi East, Sontonga Street in Katlehong and ended at the Mall of the South.

Hloni Motloung the chairman of Katlehong Athletic Club, said the purpose of the run was to get the runners fit ahead of the great Soweto marathon that will take place on November 5.

“The run went well. The runners enjoyed themselves. We are supposed to host a bigger one this coming weekend but most of the runners, including myself, will be taking part in the Diepkloof Marathon,” said Motloung.

Motloung said no results were captured as it was just a training session.

“What I can remember is that Lwandisile Mbele was the first,” Motloung said.

He thanked all the runners for a positive response.

Runners brought a R20 donation for refreshments.
