Community Track Club

In the heart of Cape Town, a running revolution is taking place. Founded in January 2023, by Erin and Mike, the Community Track Club is breaking down barriers and changing how people perceive track running. No longer reserved for the elite, this inclusive club is opening up the world-class Green Point Athletic Stadium to runners of all abilities, proving that everyone deserves to run freely and feel welcome. The Community Track Club hosts an inclusive track meet every six weeks at the Green Point Athletic Stadium. With six groups based on 5km times, there’s a place for everyone, regardless of their speed or experience. The club invites guest hosts, often elite athletes and coaches, to lead the sessions, providing a unique opportunity for the running community to learn from the best. As the groups grow and learn, they form a tight-knit community that supports and encourages one another, embodying the spirit of mutuality, acceptance, and fun. This thoughtful organization ensures that runners of all abilities can enjoy the experience and feel a sense of belonging in the Community Track Club family.
