Hewat Athletic Club hosted its 23rd annual Festival of Running at the weekend, at the Sea Point Promenade. The two-day running festival featured two ultra marathons, 100km and 50km on Saturday and, the popular half marathon a day later, on Sunday. Those interested in short distance running were not left out with the 5kmx5 relay perfect for the whole family affair, friends and colleagues.
