LAST Sunday was the annual Cape Town Marathon and 10km race.

The race was run in perfect conditions although it did get a bit hot towards the end. Well done to Sticks Stiglingh who finished third in the 10km 60+ age group in 41 minutes. Marianne Stiglingh trained hard for the 42km but unfortunat­ely pulled a muscle during the race and had to withdraw.

This past weekend was the annual Kenton Rhino run. A tough 14km beach and bush trail run plus a shorter 5km run. The club had a good turnout . Unfortunat­ely, full results are not yet available but well done to all who ran, namely Rob Joiner, Rick Betts, Richard Legg and family, Cathy and Mike Momberg, Alan and Marietjie Robb, Lyn Harbrecht, Avril Beyleveld, Rebecca and her dad Mike.

Carol and Jean Nepgen continue to pound the roads. Carol won the ladies’ walk at the Rooies 10km night race in Middleburg. They then competed in the Capital Classic 12 hour day race in Pietermari­tzburg, with Carol walking 31km and Jean 23km. Apparently there was quite a bit of rain.
