The Welgedacht Fitness Club held its first-ever aerobics marathon at the Welgedacht rugby fields on Saturday morning.

Fitness enthusiasts from the club and local community turned up in their numbers to brave the hot weather.

Bonny Mothapo, who founded the club in 2018, described it as a community club where everybody is welcome.

We started small and the club has grown over the past year.

Were building the community together and we would describe ourselves as a family, not just a fitness club.

For us, fitness is not about how you look but rather how you feel and working together to achieve your fitness goals, says Mothapo.

The sense of camaraderie that exists in the club means everyone works together and support each other through their daily and weekly sessions.

We aim to take part in a race, every weekend, and were actually in the process of registering as a running club too, says Mothapo.

The aerobics marathon proved to be a difficult but fun challenge for those who participated, proving there is no age limit for healthy living.
