Alan Ran Jozi

Alan and his friends took part in 2013's Run Jozi which was held on the 12 October from the Newtown Precinct and this year gave a choice of 2 routes - Uptown or Downton. When signing up no one knew where each route would take you but you either went with the red tshirts or grey tshirts. Alan and friends chose Uptown

Runners were asked to park in Fordsburg and make their way to Miriam Makeba Street

Some of the 10 000 runners waiting to start the 10km race

After singing the anthem and being showered in confetti the race officially started

The route took runners up the Carr Street on-ramp onto the N1 south

At the Rissik Street Offramp the routes separated - Downtown taking the offramp while Uptown continued on until the Joe Slove turn-off

The Uptown route took them up Joe Slove, to Saratoga Avenue and then into De Korte Street 

Downtown ran right through the CBD of Johannesburg.
