On 12 September 2006 the
running fraternity was rocked by the sudden death of Dr Lindsay
Weight. For the Fish Hoek Athletic Club it has been a
tremendous loss. Lindsay participated actively in our
Comrades preparations since 2001. Lindsay loved the 4 Hills
training run, and even though her duties on Comrades day restricted her
to being confined to a radio studio, she would participate in this run
nontheless. In many a column she has written of her
experiences on this run, her appreciation for the personal touch, and
the ethos of the run. To this end we have decided to host
this run in her honour. From henceforth it will be known as
the “4 Hills for Lindsay” 56km long run.
As part of our
preparations for this year’s Comrades Marathon, the “4 Hills for
Lindsay” 56km training run will take place on Sunday 3 May 2009 at
6.00am, starting and finishing at the Fish Hoek Athletic
Club.
On completion of the training run, runners are requested to ring the Comrades Bell (situated in the FHAC clubhouse) in Lindsay’s honour.
