During long runs many topics of conversation are discussed, often ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous.
The kilometres are passed with jokes, barbs, stories and everyone knows that “what is talked about on the run stays on the run.”
Recently we were chatting about what running teaches you.
We discussed how it helps develop perseverance and determination – but most importantly we decided it changes your mind-set to be one of doing something to get better every day.
Running, like most things in life, is a journey.
You have to get up each morning and try to get a little bit better.
So as the New Year has come and the effects of Christmas lunch might still be felt, don’t procrastinate, put on your running shoes and come and join us for a run.
The DCS club will reopen on Wednesday, January 7 for the time trail although there are morning runs from the club each weekday as well as on the weekends.
Membership will open in January. R350 for single membership, R600 for a family with children under 16. Licenses are R100 for adults and R60 for juniors. Pop down to the club on any of the following dates to collect your licenses and pay your subs:
Thursday, January 22 between 6pm and 8pm (come and join for a drink); Saturday, January 24 7.30am to 9.30am; Wednesday, January 28 at the time trails.
Please note these are the only dates available to fetch your licenses. Please make an effort to come down on any of these times.
