This event starts in Port Shepstone and finishes at the Wild Coast Sun.
This exciting 30km RUSH event is the middle distance race and takes fit and adventurous athletes on a journey from Ramsgate to the Wild Coast Sun.
Just make sure you don't eat too many Waffles at the Waffle House before your start!
The 12km FLASH event is the shorter of the three trail runs, but don't under estimate it.
The FLASH starts at Glenmore Beach and Runners will need to be self sufficient for the 12km until the Finish-line at the Wild Coast Sun.
Each event has CHECK IN Points. These are for the safety of our athletes and to also double up with timing splits.
The 50km EXPRESS has 2 Check In points. 1 @ Ramsgate Beach (30km Starting point) and 20km into the run.
2 @ Glenmore Beach (12km Starting point) 38km into the run. This is also the cut off point.
The 30km RUSH has 1 Check In point, which is at 18km into the run, at the Glenmore Beach (12km Start)
The 12km FLASH only has a Finshline check point.
We are hard at work busy partnering with some of the best brands and companies in South Africa.
We will keep you updated as to these developments as we get closer to race day!
We are excited to have partnered with NSRI up for our amazing event. They will play an important part in the race and the safety of our runners.
