Collegians Harriers

With roots dating back to 1933, Collegians' Harriers is Pietermaritzburg's oldest running club and among the most long-standing athletics clubs in South Africa. Originally founded as Maritzburg Harriers Athletic Club on January 24th, 1933, it later merged with the Collegians' Club on January 24th, 1950.

Located at 381 Boshoff Street in Pietermaritzburg, the Collegians' Club is home to diverse sports sections like running, cricket, bowls, squash, football, touch rugby, and darts. The clubhouse pub offers a fun, relaxed atmosphere where members can unwind, along with competitively priced, excellent dining options.

Herman's Delight is South Africa's longest continuously held weekly time trial, founded in July 1960 by Collegians stalwart Herman Delvin. The Herman's Delight continues every Tuesday at 5:30 PM from our Herman's Haunt clubhouse, with distances ranging between 7.3km, 4.4km, 2.8km, or the 1-Mile Dash and results published weekly in the Natal Witness newspaper.

Open to all runners and walkers, join us on Tuesdays and be part of keeping his spirit alive.
