Bedfordview Athletics Announces Cancellation of Boroughs of Bedfordview Race

Bedfordview, Gauteng – Bedfordview Athletics regrets to announce the cancellation of the Boroughs of Bedfordview race, scheduled for 21 September 2025.

This community event was launched in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to reunite and re-energize runners through a traditional road race format. It was a celebration of resilience and community spirit during a time when the running world had been turned upside down.

With the road running calendar now fully restored and participation levels returning to pre-Covid norms, Bedfordview Athletics has made the strategic decision to streamline its efforts and resources. The club will now focus its energy on delivering an exceptional experience through its flagship event—the Biogen 21km Run, held annually in January.

“We’re incredibly proud of what the Boroughs of Bedfordview race represented and the role it played in helping bring our running community back together,” said Grant Panter, club chairman of Bedfordview Athletics. “Our priority is to ensure we continue to grow and improve the Biogen 21km, which remains a highlight on the national running calendar.”

Bedfordview Athletics extends its sincere thanks to all the athletes, volunteers, sponsors, and community members who supported the Boroughs of Bedfordview over the past few years. The club looks forward to welcoming runners from across the country to the Biogen 21km in January 2026.
