The Discovery East Coast Radio Big Walk

7 June 2009

The East Coast Radio Big Walk has entered a new era in its six-year history with the announcement that Discovery is the new co-sponsor of the walking event, which showcases the best Durban has to offer. The event takes place on 07 June this year.

The event has grown and improved tremendously over the past few years and has become one of the largest family fun events that the city of Durban has ever seen. From having had just 1800 walkers in its first year to seeing a whopping 8000 walkers last year, the support of East Coast Radio’s listeners gleams through.

Entrants this year will see the Walk move from a one-route event to four routes, including distances of 5km, 10km, 15km and 20km, with the 20km route being a fully timed race.

The Discovery East Coast Radio Big Walk also contributes to worthy causes, thanks to the involvement of the Rotary Club, which provides services to support the walk, such as marshals and watering points.

Discovery Vitality members taking part in the Walk will earn 3 000 base fitness points for walking 5 or 10 km and 5 000 base fitness points for walking 15km or 20km.
