Join the Race 4 Hope and support a worthy cause
Lesedi Community Centre (LCC) will be hosting their annual Western Race 4 Hope on May 31.
This annual event is a fundraiser in aid of the LCC's mission in supporting vulnerable communities.
The event is a highlight for runners and cyclers and features a variety of cycling and running challenges, drawing participants of all ages and fitness levels.
Participants will meet at the Poortjie Venue just outside Heidelberg and have the option to compete in mountain biking and cross-country running, with distances ranging from 5km to 60km.
The day is an outing for families with a kids playing area, lucky draws, prizes and live entertainment.
The Western Race 4 Hope is not just about making a difference in the lives of people but also about having a great time with family and friends, surrounded by nature's beauty.
Some stages of the running and cycling trail will be through game camps with spectacular scenery of the Johannesburg skyline in the distance.
As the event grows each year, the Lesedi Community Centre remains committed to making a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals.

Dundee's boxing hero brings home the belt

Lindelani Sibisi again showed his ring craft when he claimed the South African featherweight title by knocking out the defending champion in the 10th round in East London last weekend. Lindelani is a product of the Sibongile Boxing Gym, Dundee, which has a proud history of producing eight SA champions. The club trains in a basement in the community hall and is often subject to flooding – yet this has not stopped the pugilists from giving their all.

WATCH: Richards Bay's Marsha Muller smashes 300km in 48 hours

The Zululand community watched in awe as Richards Bay endurance athlete Marsha Muller took on her biggest feat yet – and smashed it. Among more than 100 of the world's elite ultra runners, Muller set off at noon on Friday to break her own South African and African record of 272.6km in the ladies' 48hr running world champs. Her goal was to run 300km in 48 hours – which she achieved this (Sunday) morning. After a gruelling weekend of running around a 1.7km track in Poland, Muller surpassed her record at 6am on Sunday, completing 300km just before 11am. Asked by her husband Shawn if she was going to do more, she said she'd walk it. Don't have the ZO app?
