The Nedbank Running Club Gauteng North had a very well attended Comrades Aches and Pains party last Thursday post their weekly time trial. There were a total of 75 Comrades 2011 finishers and family members.
The top athletes as well as the last Nedbank Running Club man and woman were awarded trophies.
Renier Grobler was acknowledged as the first novice home in position 73 overall, in a stunning time of 6:31:54.
All the attendees of the evening enjoyed a delicious meal and a host of spot prizes from our generous sponsors. The evening was well received by the Nedbank Running Club members and everyone enjoyed the function.
Claude Moshiywa stated on his Facebook page that this was the best way he has ever been acknowledged for an athletics performance.
