RUNNERS SUPPORTING RUNNERS. THAT’S POD SPIRIT. 🐬

To our incredible seconders, the early risers who show up before the sun, set up the tables, prepare the much-needed fuel and hydration provided by Vida Mineral Water Ballito , and give our runners that extra boost when they need it most. THANK YOU! 🙌

You are such an important part of what makes Dolphin Coast Striders special.

Having seconded long runs as part of our club’s ethos and offering is something truly unique. It’s about more than running. It’s about community, belonging and showing up for one another.

Because behind every strong Pod is a community that keeps it going. 💙

This is what community looks like. This is what belonging feels like. This is POD SPIRIT. 🐬

SOME THINGS ARE BIGGER THAN A FINISH LINE! 🐾

Imagine leading a 65km trail race, with a title to defend, and choosing to sacrifice it all for a four-legged friend.

That’s exactly what our very own Dolphin, Andrew Erasmus, did at The Mighty Mutter 2026!

At the 40km mark, Andrew was leading the race with Badger, the resident dog from St Bernard’s Peak Mountain Lodge, following closely behind.

When Andrew realised Badger was struggling to keep up, he faced a choice. Keep racing and risk leaving Badger alone in the mountains, or give up his lead to make sure his new running buddy got home safely.

Andrew chose Badger. ❤️🐕

He sacrificed his race, and potentially his title, to ensure Badger made it home safely.

Andrew, you may have given up your place on the podium, but you’ve certainly won the hearts of the Pod! 🐬

Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear running shoes! 👟💙

KickStart has many professionals that partner with us to help our KickStarters. It is always so welcome to receive advice and guidance when starting out on a running journey, as we often experience niggles and feel muscles we never know we had. It's normal as our bodies adapt to a new exercise regime and program.

This past week we were privileged to have Lianca Dookran, a physiotherapist on the North Coast join us. Lianca shared her knowledge on some common niggles runners experience, what to look out for and when to seek professional advice.

Thank you Lianca for your time, knowledge and positive energy. It's always a treat having you online. Thank you so much for investing in our KickStarters, we really do appreciate it.

You can contact Lianca at 032 586 3240 to book an appointment.

POD, REMEMBER THE RACE YOUR ARE WORKING TOWARDS IS ONE DAY.

But becoming the person who can run it takes months.

The early alarms.
The long runs.
The hills.
The speed sessions.
The days you didn’t feel like it, but showed up anyway.

Race day gets the medal, but the training is where you earned it.

Be proud of every kilometre that got you there. 🐬💛
