New to running?

Your first club run

Start with the Saturday beginners and walkers group. A coach runs at the back, so nobody finishes alone.

Join the club

Before your first run

  • Bring water, a cap and sunscreen. Windhoek sun is strong even at 07:00.
  • Wear something bright for early starts and evening sessions.
  • Tell a committee member you are new. We'll introduce you to your group.

Safety on the road

  • Run against the traffic and in single file on narrow roads.
  • No headphones on group runs.
  • Carry your phone and an emergency contact.
