The notorious climb up Meintjieskop takes place just after the Union Buildings. The 800m hill was constructed by the Italian POW during World War 2. The race ends on the lawns of the Union Buildings and kicks off with the chiming of the Union Buildings clock tower.
Medals are awarded to all finishers and prizes to category winners.
