Captains corner: Ladies - June 2019

June Captains corner: Ladies


Dear wonderful ladies

I am very proud to say that our first ladies’ event on 24 May 2019 was a big success and we are off to a great start to this year. Thanks again to all the ladies that attended, sponsored, and helped to make it such a fantastic evening. I hope to see many more ladies at future events.

We also had a fantastic Spar Ladies race and some girls joined in the fun with tutu dresses 😊. I am proud to see some high spirits amongst the members and people greeting and cheering each other on during the races. Let’s keep this tradition going ladies, by cheering and supporting each other no matter the distance or speed. We are all runners and I am proud of everyone!!!!

Winter is officially here, and safety is always a concern. I would like to urge everyone to wear some reflective gear and maybe invest in some pepper spray. You can never be too careful. 

I know it’s difficult to get up during winter for runs but would like everyone to join us on Sundays for the Ladies run. 

Comrades is here and I want to wish everyone a safe trip and a successful race. We will be cheering for everyone.

Orak is almost here as well and the ladies will be coming in numbers and all motivated to bring our A game. So BAK men the challenge is on. Bring it boys!!!!! 

Enjoy a wonderful month of training and keep safe and injury free. 

Kind regards

Your ladies captain
