Lovers Lane - Roaring 40's run

Inaugural "run" - Roaring 40's - 6 Sept 7pm


Run or walk for 40 minutes - see how far you get!

The idea of this walk or run is to walk or run for 19 minutes and then to get back to the start in the next 21 minutes. It would allow for a slower second half than the first half. It does not matter how fast you go or how slow you go. Your plan is to beat your previous best at the next run. 

The first R-40's run will be in the area of Lover's lane, Bellville. It will start with a downhill, then a bit of up again and depending on your speed another downhill before you turn around. You will probably be able to do anything from 3km (13 min per km) to twelve km (just over 3 min per km) in the period.

This is a run or walk with friends with some friendly volunteers to assist along the way. You may see Table Mountain and the City depending on your speed.

In the winter months this is a night run with no prospect of seeing the sunset. From October to March you will see the sunsets!

Proposed route is below - this is not final. 

If you want to be reminded about the run - please drop an email to us here: hansielouw2@gmail.com or send a message (whatsapp or sms) 0717535469

  Above: 2023 Comrades Down run to Durban The Final Stretch: Running Through Pain, Toward Glory There are moments in life when the body is failing, the mind is clouded, and all that keeps you moving is something far deeper—something eternal. That was my reality as I approached the final kilometers of the 2025 Comrades Marathon. And today, I want to share that experience alongside a memory from over twenty years ago—a time when the finish line looked very different, but the spiritual lesson was just as profound. A Road Marked by Pain The last 7 kilometers of Comrades 2025 were like a desert—scattered with runners who had collapsed from exhaustion. Some lay flat on the hot tar, others slumped against walls, broken by the journey. I knew the danger of stopping. My legs trembled. My balance disappeared whenever I paused. Only forward motion, no matter how slow, kept me upright. I needed to average 8 minutes per kilometer in those final moments, but my body was moving at double that...
