This weekend’s Midmar Mile will be the 82nd edition of the iconic event, with various categories being swum from Thursday through Sunday. It will be Bloom’s third entry however, and the first since the Covid-19 pandemic.

“We are extremely pleased with the support we have received from residents and schools in the area. We are hoping for a successful and safe day,” said Nicholson.
