About Us

If you have decided to make running or walking a lifestyle, you are probably a
balanced person who realizes the importance of keeping fit. At ACE (Athletics Club
Eersterust) we believe in keeping a balance in everything we do: we accommodate
both the serious and the not-so-serious runner/walker; we consider the social part of
our club as important as the competitive part; and we see ourselves as a club for the
whole family, including partners and children who do not partake in walking or
running.

ACE social races

The Club Management Team identifies certain races throughout the year where the club gazebo is
erected (normally at all league races) and the club supplies light refreshments at such meetings to encourage team spirit.


Training runs/walks (Club runs)

These take place on most Saturday mornings as indicated on the club program which will be drawn up and distributed to all the members. They are usually done at a slow pace over 21 to 25km’s.  Please check the calendar for further details.


Time trials

Time trials will be held at a predetermined location we suggest normally on a
Wednesday or Thursday. During the summer months, ( 1 October to 31 March ) time
trials commence at 17:15 , while during the winter months , the starting time is
17:00.( 1 April to 30 September ) You can choose between distances of 2, 4, 6 and
8km and you can run or walk.
