Description

This is a point to point, scenic race, set on a gradual decline. It’s the oldest and the 2^nd biggest marathon in the SWD, not to mention one of the 10 best races to qualify for Two Oceans and Comrades.

There will be refreshments every 3km, and every 2km, during the last 10km of the race.

T-shirts will be given to the first 100 pre-entries of the 42.2km, the first 50 of the 21.1km and the first 50 on the walking race.

Gold medals will be awarded to category winners, silver to runners who finish in under 3 hours and bronze to all other finishes. Stick around for lots of lucky draw prizes, at the end of the race.

Once again an absolute brilliant race! First, entering the race online through the Dryland.co.za website was a breeze. Great scenery & great route. The organization and water points are still unmatched in SA. Cold water and Coke till the very last water table!

Great, well organised. Waterpoints had ice cold water all day – even for us 42km back markers. The finish area had great displays with many of THe Oudtshoorn businesses supporting the Infantry School effort. WELL DONE – will definitely be back.
