OTB Stay Fit Campaign

Are you feeling tired and want to get more fit? Do you want to get rid of those extra kilos before Christmas? Have you bought a pair of new Takkies which have never been used?

OTB has now started a Stay Fit Campaign where we welcome young or old, new or experienced, runners or walkers, to participate in a Saturday morning run or walk. We now start at 07:00 from OTB Sport in Klein Windhoek, AeGams Shopping Centre.

For the walkers - we have a group where we do a 5 km walk, ideal for starters but more experienced walkers are also welcome. We also do a 8km route at a reasonable pace, which is suitable for the more experienced.

For the runners - we have a 5km and a 10km run. Runs will be guided by a 6min per km pace setter and a 5min per km pace setter for each distance.
