COLLEGIANS HARRIERS

A club built around the people who run.

Collegians Harriers brings together road runners, trail runners, social runners and competitive athletes in Pietermaritzburg. The club combines a long sporting tradition with an active weekly running community, hosted events and a strong social identity.

The website brings together what members and visitors need most: clear membership information, club running, championships, hosted events, results and the stories that make Collegians what it is.

What defines Collegians.
