Club runs

The Pathfinder welcomes you back to Satori in 2012.
I am back from my holiday and am ready to lead your runs from Monday 16th January as follows.
 
Monday evenings, same as last year, leaving from the Baptist Church at 18h00. This run caters for two groups, firstly the beginners or those who feel they need to start 2012 slowly; and secondly for the more experienced runners who would like to run in a group.
The Saturday/Sunday runs will be increasing in distance from 15 km in January leading up to The Two Oceans Marathon, with lovely long runs up to 40 km towards the end of our training.
I am looking forward to sharing the hours on the road with you.
Very important please note that the morning runs start at 06h00 during the first term of 2012.

Click here to see our training run schedule on our website.
Remember that speed is not the essence but rather the love for running.
Have fun and enjoy the long daylight hours.

For the Love of It
Andrea!
