Walking School
Walking club in Bedfordview
The Walking School is the official walking group of Bedfordview Athletics, meeting four mornings a week at Virgin Active Bedfordview.
Looking for a walking club in Bedfordview? The Walking School is the official walking group of Bedfordview Athletics. Walkers meet at the top parking lot of Virgin Active Bedfordview at 05h00 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and at 06h00 on Saturday, and cover 5 to 8 km at 8:00 to 10:00 min/km. Your first session is on us.
Who the Walking School is for
It suits anyone who wants to get fitter, stay active or simply have company on an early morning walk. You do not need any experience. Walking in a group is also safer and far more pleasant than walking alone in the dark.
The group is part of the same club as our runners, so you meet the same people at socials and club events. If you decide to try running later, Sofa to So Far is our free eight-week walk-run programme for beginners.
What to bring
- Comfortable walking or running shoes.
- Something reflective and a light for dark mornings.
- Water for the longer walks, especially in summer.
Where we meet
All club groups start from the top parking lot of Virgin Active Bedfordview, at Bedfordview Country Club. It is close to Edenvale, Germiston, Kensington, Bruma and Senderwood. See this week's sessions on the training runs page.
How to start
- Choose a morning and meet us at the top parking lot.
- Join the Walking School for your first session. It is on us.
- To keep walking with the club, become a member.
