IMPORTANT RACE INFO

Please remember that you need to wear BOTH licenses, one on the front and one on the back of your vest. You do not want to be disqualified. Sow your license on your vest, that way you will never forget it.

Always adhere to the rules of each race as many Athletes are being disqualified and we would like to paint the races green as usual with so many Nedbank Running Club Athletes participating.

The 2018 Licenses are going fast, ensure you have your 2018 License otherwise you have to buy a TEMP License as 2018 License have to be worn as from 01 February 2018.

GREEN DREAM TEAM

Congratulations to all our Elite Athletes with their outstanding performance at the races thus far, we are proud of you and we are sure we will make waves again at OMTOM and Comrades. Our Elite Athletes are available at our Time Trials to answer your questions re training and diet if you have any questions. Don't be shy, go up to them and shake their hand, take a photo and share it on our Face Book page as well.

GENERAL

A lot of Athletes have no registared on ASA's Website, please ensure you do so for us to ACCEPT you as we need to confirm our Athletes for Two Oceans Marathon. 

Please remember to bring old running shoes, clothes or any running items you would like to donate to our Development Athletes. They always need running gear.

Please spread the word or bring along a friend or Family Member to join our Club. You will be rewarded with a R50 voucher if you enter someone into our Club. Ensure you bring them to us after Time Trials so that we know who must be rewarded. We are always seeking new talent or Athletes for our Club as well as keep our membership growing.

See you all at our Tow Oceans Party! Remember, we are all part of one running family, keep our Club name high and let us not judge each other. Do not litter while running, do not wear headphones or your Cellphone earphones and always adhere to the rules.
