This is a race which is very special to us Varsity Runners. There is something special about running in the green 'Natal U' vest. It attracts support like no other club on the road between Durban and Maritzburg. 47 of our runners reached Durban before the cut-off this year, including a large number of novice runners. We only managed one silver this year.
Next year is the up run once again.
This means finishing at home in front of a large Varsity crowd. On the 4 September, the Athletics AGM was held at Crossways Inn in Hilton. 40 members attended this buffet supper The outgoing president, Delwyn Roberts, delivered a report on the previous year's activities. The annual trip to Cape Town for the Two Oceans Marathon was memorable, with members already booking their places for next year's race. The KFC Half Marathon, which N.U.A.C. hosted, was one of the best since its inception.
