In commemoration of Youth Day, non-profit organisation Durban Green Corridor hosted a trail run at the Enanda Adventure Park on 16 June for youth in the surrounding area.
The event was a huge success, with over 200 enthusiastic runners taking on the 5km and 10km long distance running challenges as their way of bringing attention to the importance of fitness for maintaining good physical and mental health in young people.
Cash prizes were awarded to the top three runners in each age race category, and medals to the first 100 to cross the finish line. Amidst the day’s other fun activities, Afro’s Chicken Shop ensured that energy levels remained high by providing all in attendance with lunch.
Mobile payment and lifestyle app, Zapper and PWC South Africa, who helped to sponsor the event, were present on the day to encourage the runners.
“Races like these play a significant role in building a child’s self-confidence. The personal triumph that each runner feels after they have crossed the finish line motivates them to believe that they can overcome any life challenge if they put their mind to it, said Jessica Fowlds, Marketing Manager for Zapper. “We are very happy with the days turnout and look forward to another exciting event next year.”
