The first 3-in-1 road race by Overkruin Athletics took place on 23 May last year, with great success and this year, the race will take place on Saturday 19 March.
Last year’s race was reckoned as one of the best presented races in Pretoria and the club were awarded league status for its race this year.
Overkruin Athletics club involves the community to market the race locally and also assist at water points. This creates excitement among runners and helpers.
Runners have a choice between a 5km fun run, a 10km road race or a 21km half marathon through the scenic Montana Park, with the start and finish at Kolonnade shopping centre.
The Budget Insurance Kolonnade 3-in-1 is being run for the second year, and is a community event with the schools in the area manning the water points. There is a competition for the best water point so this makes for a great atmosphere on the race day.
The Kolonnade shopping centre offers lots of parking and restaurants for hungry runners looking for a post-race breakfast. Also look out for the Harley Davidson motorcycles on the 5km fun run.
The race starts at 06:00 on 19 March with on the day registration from 04:30 at entrance 3 of the shopping centre.
