Why not kick-start your school holiday with a race suitable for the whole family? For the fit, take part in the 35km Sky Trail or the 10km Sky Lite for the not-so-fit!

There’s also the additional 5km Night Race on the golf Estate for the entire family the night before @ 7pm followed by a bring & braai at the Manor House (1/2 way house). The Sky Trail route is specifically cleared for race day. You’ll run through the Katberg Game Reserve, through natural indigenous forest canopy on single track widening as you ascend up the forestry roads which join the firebreak traversing across the face of the mountain @ 1600m above sea level. (A nice 1m wide single track.)

You’ll be greeted by a Jeep at this altitude with” a taste for life” Spur Burger & a POWERADE. The route reopens & it’s a long downhill on a real rocky “JEEP ONLY” road, (the original national road that linked EC and Gauteng) namely the Kat Pass, before a long descent onto some awesome single-track, then onto the golf fairways.

A cosy pub, the Manor house awaits you with a hot cuppa before the race & a crystal clear pool to dive into thereafter. There are hot showers, lite beer, race banter and great Eastern Cape hospitality await runners.

Thanks to our valued sponsors, Queens Casino & Hotel, all finishers of the 10km & 35km events receive an incredible race jacket valued at R400.00 Trophies to the 1st, 2nd & 3rd male & female in each category.

Lucky draws include 2 pairs of shoes.

Starting times: 35km, 18km, 10km & 5km: time TBA.

Pre-entries, available on www.eventcow.org, close TBA. Late entries (not guaranteed a race top) may be available on race day.
