Race of Gratitude

Centurion Mall, in association with Market Wa Pitori, is proud to host the fourth edition of this award-winning event, recognised at the 2022 and 2024 South African Council of Shopping Centres (SACSC) Footprint Marketing Awards in the digital marketing and public relations silver categories.

The Race of Gratitude is about bringing the community together through a shared social experience. This initiative encourages tenant participation and collaboration with non-profit organisations (NPOs) specialising in skills development and community upliftment. It provides a fun and interactive way for shoppers and tenants to connect in an outdoor setting.

Adding to the excitement, the 21.1km route is an official race before Comrades Marathon testing your fitness, making this race a must for serious runners aiming for the legendary marathon.

Skosana Running Group Development has been appointed as the official NPO for this year’s race. Dedicated to empowering and uplifting youth, Skosana Development collaborates with Development Clubs to identify and nurture young running talent across Pretoria assisting Danville Club, Soshanguve Club and Siyahlala Club.

Participants can choose from 5km, 10km, and 21.1km race options. After the race, athletes, spectators, and families can enjoy a fun-filled day at Centurion Mall and explore the family market at Market Wa Pitori, located just around the corner from the event. Entry fees apply.

The first 100 participants to register will receive a goody bag, proudly sponsored by Dis-Chem Pharmacies.
