More than 50 take part in parkrun at Standerton

Altogether 53 participants were out of the blocks at the parkrun on Saturday, December 11 at 8:00.

Theo Schönfeldt reached a milestone of completing his 100th parkrun.

A total of 13 volunteers were present to facilitate smooth running over the 5km distance.

The organisers said that both Northern Light Foundation en Lekw Clean Up Crew made sure, the previous day, that the Standerton River Park was in ship-shape condition for the parkrunners.

Volunteers filled however, six refuse bags the Saturday before the event began.

They appealed to the community to consider the athletes when enjoying the facilities, which are open to all.
