Kingswood Junior School hosts its annual Wimpy Heritage Day Challenge on Sunday 26 September. The event consists of a 10km run/walk, as well as a 4.5km fun run/walk, as well as a 2km route for pre-primary students  and their teachers and parents.

Kingswood Junior School hosts its annual Wimpy Heritage Day Challenge on Sunday 26 September. The event consists of a 10km run/walk, as well as a 4.5km fun run/walk, as well as a 2km route for pre-primary students  and their teachers and parents.


The first 522 finishers will each receive a gold, silver or bronze medal. “This is a family outing,”said organiser Ian Knott-Craig. The races start at 8am from Kingswood City Lords rugby field, with entries being taken from 7am.

The cut off time is two hours which will be followed by the prizegiving. Entry forms are available at Wimpy or Kingswood Junior.

The entrance fee is R10. Wimpy is the main sponsor with PG Glass, Kenrich, PennyPinchers and Re/Max all supporting the day and sponsoring the water tables and the finish line.

Last year saw about 450 participants “and we are hoping for a similar response from everyone,” said Knott-Craig.

The men’s record, set in 2007, of 32 minutes 26 seconds is held by Simphiwe Tana, and the women’s record is held by Alexia Louizou, 41:05 set in 2008.
