In 2017, the inaugural event saw Uganda’s Joshua Cheptegei smash the South African all-comers record of 27:55, set by Richard Limo in Port Elizabeth in 2004.
Joshua crossed the finish line in 27:28, the fourth fastest time in the world.
“Although only in its third year, the FNB Durban 10K CITYSURFRUN has delivered nail-biting performances,” said the managing director of Stillwater Sports, Michael Meyer.
