Welcome to the Whalers Athletic club Home Page. The Club is based in Hermanus in the Boland Region of the Western Cape and has around 60 members. Whalers are friendly people, welcoming all members of the community and visitors. We cater for a wide range of athletic abilities and aspirations (Runners and Walkers). The club has some good athletes who thrive on the competitive aspects of the sport, and also those who just want to run for pleasure or to keep fit. |

Saturday morning long training runs start at the Hemel-en-Aarde Wine Village at 6am in summer and 7am in winter. The distance is decided before the runners set off and may be any distance between 15 and 35 km, the longer runs usually before the 2Oceans. Cool drinks are sponsored by the Club. A vehicle accompanies the runners, so if you feel tired, or that Achilles tendon starts to pull, get into the car, relax and enjoy the Hermanus scenery. |  |

a 3km time trial was introduced on 1 September 2005: which as we hoped, attracted more walkers and schoolchildren.
Ode
to the 3km: Spring has sprung, the time has come To get rid of that bulging tummy Spread the news, put on your shoes Get out and start some running The new time trial, is like a smile You scarcely know you’ve done it Only three kays long, just like a song You’ll enjoy it as you run it! Hugh Waters
