For the Comrades entrant, the 10km offers one last opportunity to get in a quality shorter run before the Comrades Marathon.
This event is not just for hardcore athletes. The 5km fun run will offer a great day out for the whole family, including your dogs, with the start/finish offering a selection of entertainment, great food, good beer and other beverages, as well as various other vendors.
As the 5km is a fun run, no licence is needed.

There will be medals and backpacks for the first 100 participating in the nappy dash.
