Did the 5km Short Course in 2026 AttendedTotally enjoyed the challenging course. However disappointed that my entering of my athletic club ie Protea Striders A. C - Pmburg ( Official KZNA club) is not entered in my entry and not recognised. Also it will appreciated if age category is recognised and get a special incentives especially that KZNA trail Champs coming up on the 24 Oct 2026. I am a year old grandmaster and came first in my age category and this was my very first trail run. Thank you
