About Madoko Athletics Club
A community of runners built on discipline, friendship, support and the belief that we are stronger together.
Who we are
Madoko Athletics Club is a running family built around shared experiences, personal growth and genuine support for one another.
From training sessions and races to community initiatives and moments shared away from the road, MAC creates an environment where runners can challenge themselves while knowing they have people behind them.
Our journey
Since MAC's inception, Coach Madoko has helped novice runners develop their confidence and endurance. Many runners who trained with him have gone on to successfully complete the Comrades Marathon, with some achieving personal bests.
But the club is about more than finishing races. It is about creating lasting relationships, encouraging one another and making every runner feel part of something bigger.
What drives us
Our club culture is built around the people, principles and relationships that make MAC more than just a place to run.
We believe running is better when we do it together. Every member contributes to the strength of the family.
Progress comes from consistency. We encourage members to show up, put in the work and keep moving towards their goals.
“Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu” reminds us that we are strengthened by the people around us and that we have a responsibility to support one another.
Whether the goal is a first race or a new personal best, we celebrate progress and encourage every runner to keep improving.
The heart of MAC
In this family, we stand by each other through both joyful moments and life's challenges.
Ubuntu is not simply a word for us. It represents the support, care and solidarity that connect our members.
Community initiative
“Charity Begins at Home.”
The Back a Runner initiative reflects Coach Madoko's belief that a strong community is built by members supporting and caring for one another.
From mentoring young athletes to community service, MAC encourages its members to extend a helping hand and contribute to a culture of generosity and empathy.
