Vryheid KZN: Athletes still running strong
The past two years, there has not been a Comrades season, so it was quite interesting to witness the dwindling numbers of morning runners as the mornings got colder and darker
For years, Vryheid Athletic Club’s (VAC) training times have been taking place on four mornings between 05:00 and 06:00, and longer over weekends. Normally being a big group of up to 30 people in the mornings, the numbers are largely dictated by the different seasons and of course, also Comrades season. But for the past two years, there has not been a Comrades season, so it was quite interesting to witness the dwindling numbers of morning runners as the mornings got colder and darker. It is always such a pleasure and a PICTURE to witness the return of the warmer season and the beautiful sunrises, together with the steady increase in our morning numbers… We are excited about the summer that lies ahead. This past weekend, our runs were dedicated to our women, hence the photo of our women runners this week; but we would really like to thank our loyal men who always run with and keep our running group together by turning for the slower runners and always making sure everyone is okay.Thank you to everyone. It is a privilege to be part of VAC.
