KWT RACE PROMOTES UNITY

The Slay Fitness Camp is calling all schools, sports clubs, churches and youth in King William’s Town and surrounding areas to take part in the Crosstown Marathon on Saturday November 10.

Slay Fitness Camp marketing manager Ntsikelelo Ntobololo said the Crosstown Marathon was a 5km fun run aimed at promoting health, fitness and unity, especially among the youth.

“Our starting point will be the Lovedale College King Campus. We will run around the surrounding suburbs all the way to the Victoria Grounds, where there will be food, fun and entertainment.

“We hope to gather as many young people as we can to start conversations and have fun in a clean, healthy way.

“We have pulled in young local entrepreneurs, motivational speakers and entertainers as well,” Ntobololo said.

The idea behind the marathon came about when a few gym buddies got together and decided to try and make health and fitness a trend in the King William’s Town community, he said.

“It’s been proven that your psychological progress is dependent on your physical and health outlook. When you look good, you feel good. When you feel good, you do good,” he said.

There will be live performances by local, award-winning artist Zipho Vena, Accoustic Connexion, Imbizo, Luvi Entourage Entertainment, Celtic Stuurman and Dj Matsaw.
