There are regular runs / walks held in Gauteng under the umbrella of Athletics Gauteng North, these were mainly focused on people without disabilities but soon changed when they were joined by a gentleman in a wheelchair - Pieter Pretorius, this one soon grew to a group of three men who regularly join AGN and also go across country to participate in runs / walks across RSA. Mathys who used to do
athletics before becoming wheelchair bound used to participate in the Memel run, and always wanted to return, he convinced Pieter and Jacques to join him and this is where Rolling In all started. These three are an inspiration to everyone.. They will shortly be travelling to Hermanus as well as Robertson where Mathys Roets has challenged of his friends saying that “if he can do it in his chair then they can at least walk the 10kms” (translated from the original article on Sarie’s web site (go here to read the article).
