About this listen

Paul Ward is the visionary behind The Nine Four, a groundbreaking running crew that has redefined the running culture in Cape Town. Paul’s journey began with a bold mission: to break down the social and racial barriers that once divided communities. At a time when people of different skin colours were rarely seen running or socialising together, Paul founded The Nine Four—a crew that has grown into a powerful symbol of unity and inclusivity.

With just 30 members, The Nine Four isn’t just about running—it’s about creating a space where diverse individuals come together to connect, share experiences, and celebrate their love for movement.

In this conversation, we dive deep into Paul’s personal journey, the evolution of The Nine Four, and the impact of creating a space that celebrates togetherness, inclusivity, and breaking barriers.

This is an inspiring story of how running became a catalyst for change and connection in Cape Town, and how a small crew is helping reshape a community, one step at a time.
