We really want to encourage all our members to take part and to test your fitness level

  • Virtual Time Trials will only be run on Tuesdays between the curfew times of level 2 of the lockdown. You can decide yourself at what time and distance you want to run your time trial
  • Available distances you can choose from is2,4,6 or 8 kilometers
  • Send a screenshot of your running app or a photo of your watch with date, time, distance and duration of your running time to our Nedbank RC WhattsApp group number 07606061774 as soon as you completed your time trial

Virtual Time Trial winner – August 2020!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to Coenie Herbst who was our August ’20 virtual time trial winner. Coenie deserved the R250.00 gift voucher and his results for August ’20 were as follows:

  • 4 August – 4km in time of 18:58
  • 11 August – 4km in time of 19:12
  • 18 August – 4km in time of 19:36
  • 25 August – 8km in time of 45:04

The following guidelines will be used to determine the monthly winner for the remainder of the virtual time trials. New guidelines will be implemented as soon as normal weekly time trials can continue. This is done to give all participants a fair chance of winning the monthly gift voucher for the virtual time trials:

  • Previous winners of the gift voucher are eliminated for the rest of the virtual time trials. You can still run your virtual time trial on a weekly basis and your times will still be recorded. An overall winner can be chosen at the end of the period for virtual time trials. Please keep on sending your weekly results
  • If you completed the most time trials for the specific month, you will be the outright winner of the gift voucher, except when you were a previous winner
  • If there is more than one participant with equal number of time trials, the winner will be decided on a lucky draw basis. If there was for example two or more participants with an equal number of time trials
Thank you to all the other participants in August ’20 and the best of luck in winning the September ’20 price. We want to encourage all our members to join this virtual time trials and please promote this initiative to all people who might be interested.
