WATCH: So much water, Loskop Marathon Wild Challenge had to be rerouted

What a sight!

The Klein Olifants River is still in flood.

And all that water is going to Loskop Dam, where the Nashua Loskop Marathon was hosted yesterday.

Loskop’s dam wall is already overflowing, as the video shows.

The dam has swelled to such an extent that the final stretch of the marathon’s 21km Wild Challenge had to be rerouted.
