About

Run/Walk For Life was founded by a medical doctor in 1983, and quickly became a leading fitness and weight management programme in South Africa.

To this day, we are the only exercise programme of its kind to be approved by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of South Africa.

While running and walking are at the core of what we offer our members, Run/Walk For Life is not a traditional running club.

We provide our members with scientifically proven programmes and guidance to help them reach their fitness and health goals.
