WHO'S WORLD OF FANTASY WILL YOU DIVE INTO NEXT?

GREETINGS GREAT FOLKS, glad you managed to make it back here. How was the last week? How was work? Have you been able to find the perfect fit to your exercise program yet using the FITT Principle? Would totally love to hear about that.

Now, I apologise since this article will step some ways away from what you’ve been accustomed to, but I wouldn’t say that it wouldn’t not be totally worth it having a read. And who knows, it might just give you that extra bit of motivation on your health and fitness journey. 😉

THE 2023-2O24 COMPETITIVE SEASON

The Competitive Season that runs from September to June is about to begin, and there’s quite a bit in stock for you this time round. I think adding running to the list of races is the biggest one so far. We figured that as you wait for the annual Standard Chartered and Expressway Marathons, you would want to help yourself keep in shape and track your progress with this list of races.

Looking to become a local hero, or at least have something to show off to your friends about? Well, in addition to helping you track your progress and improvement over time, you will get to have an entire page on the website dedicated to your achievements, that can be accessed anywhere (in the world) and at any time. Yaaay!

WHAT TO EXPECT

First, for the ladies, since it is currently impossible to practically keep up with the – did you think Kardashians again? Lol – current theme of “making breastfeeding at work, work”, the still-ongoing theme of menstrual health was the next best thing. Therefore, for all the ladies who register for the races (without necessarily completing them), goody bags containing a few goodies will be awarded to you 🙂

Second, these are harsh economic times, and it really doesn’t make any sense going all the way to a race and returning empty-handed, does it? Hence, if you do manage to complete the races (that is, cross the finish line), you get to bag a medal and an accompanying goody bag that should make your home life that much easier to live. 🙂

Third, all those who were named Champions of the Year 2021 get free entry into all the races this Season. All you’ve got to do is communicate your intent to race (for logistical reasons), show up, race and voila!

Finally, with your permission, you get to feature on the race social media handles with a nice race photo of you, your classification and your best personal time yet!

Alright, I’ll leave it here for today and hand it over to the race-organising team to let you further in on the 4-1-1. 🙂 I hope to see you at the races this year, then we can talk about all we have been discussing here, only this time in person. I mean, aren’t you curious as to who has been behind the keyboard? Hehe. XD All the best!

Cheers!

KR-ITT CYCLING SERIES #1 (KR Individual Time Trial): 3rd September 2023

If you’re joining us for the first time, karibu sana! The KR-ITT Series is a solo cycling race against the clock over a set distance; fastest time wins 🙂

During this 2023-2024 Season, the route will be Kenyatta Road from Theta Hotel and back, a total distance of 26km. Plying the route for 10 months in a row should give you the opportunity to set the fastest personal best time, and perhaps even the course record in your age category. 😉 What a nice way to become a local hero, ey?

All you’ve got to do is complete registration here, show up on race day, ride your bike, and we’ll take care of the rest :).

VENUE: Theta Hotel, Kenyatta Road

START TIME: first rider rolls out at 0831h

ORGANISER/COACH-PARENT/ATHLETE ONLINE CONSULTATION: 9th and 10th September 2023

We care about you.

Therefore, we will be giving you the chance to speak to our team of coaches about your performance, goals and sporting journey for FREE! This could take anything from a few seconds, to a couple of minutes, to even 10 minutes – it is your chance to be heard.

For convenience purposes, you can book time slots from either of both days between 0900h and 1500h and a google meet link will then be sent to you via email for that time slot. 🙂

RUNNING INDIVIDUAL TIME TRIAL #1: 17th September 2023

Yes, you read that right: an individual run against the clock. This is the first time we are hosting this race, and so it’s needless to say that the fastest times set on the day will become the course records to beat! Do you think you have the legs?

Have you been jogging every morning or evening and are looking for that motivation to try get a little faster? This race is intended to do just that.

All you’ve got to do is complete registration here, show up on race day, run your race, and we’ll take care of the rest :).

VENUE: Kasarani Stadium, outside gate 11 at the roundabout. Parking spaces in plenty

START TIME: first runner goes out at 0831h

OBJECTIVE: Run the course in the shortest time possible while keeping safe 😉

KRITTERIUM CYCLING SERIES #1: 24th September 2023

A cycling race of laps; the first to cross the line wins.

Do you think you have the skills to ride in a peloton, to take corners at speed, sprint for extra points; or perhaps ride to complete your first ever group race? This is where you need to be to achieve your goals and put yourself to the test. We most certainly will be rooting for you.

All you’ve got to do is complete registration here, show up on race day, ride your bike, and we’ll take care of the rest :).

VENUE: Kasarani Stadium, outside gate 11 at the roundabout. Parking spaces in plenty
