Run/Walk for Life’s Randpark branch celebrates 40 years of community
The team welcomes a diverse group of runners of all speed, fitness, and age levels.
Run/Walk for Life is marking its 40th birthday countrywide, and the Randpark branch is leading the celebrations.
The group enjoyed an early morning breakfast and social to celebrate and were reminded of the importance of staying connected.
“We have a very diverse team of runners and walkers of all ages, fitness levels and paces,” said coach René de Villiers. “We recently welcomed a new member Elize Nowakowitsch to our team who reached out to the community because she walked alone and was held up at knifepoint. We’re very pleased that she joined us and she’s loving every minute.”
Based at Randburg Bowls Club, members make their way out onto the streets of the nearby leafy suburbs during their runs. These are every Tuesday and Thursday at 16:30 and Saturday at 07:00.
De Villiers invited the community to join in or contact her to find out more about the group.
