For one day only, we are opening up the Mount Savannah Game Farm, situated in the heart of the Cradle of Humankind, for a new trail tun with brand new scenery, an abundance of game, hand built trails and on top of that a day filled with fun for the whole family. 5km, 10km and 15km distances are available, with a 2km fun run for the kids. Entries are limited. No entries will be available on the day.
Our booking system enables runners to submit times allowing us to seed them into batches ensuring that there is never a large gathering at the venue at any one time. All COVID protocols are in place to screen runners and walkers upon entry, as well as trail safety measures to ensure that you can enjoy your time out on the trails in a secure way. However your safety is as much your responsibility as it is ours. Remember to wear your mask at all times and practice social distancing at all times. Do not run if you’re feeling sick, if you’ve tested positive, or if you’ve come into contact with someone who has tested positive with COVID in the last 14 days.
How it will work:
The routes will follow well maintained, jeep track paths catering for social runners and competitive athletes alike. The routes cover spectacular scenery with an abundance of game and will suit all types of fitness levels as well as your budget!!
Runners will be batched based on the times they submit upon registration. Start times will be communicated the day prior to the race. To avoid gatherings please don’t arrive too early, or too late 🙂
To limit contact, and comply with COVID regulations, unfortunately NO WATER POINTS will be provided along routes. Therefore it is essential for runners to bring hydration and snacks based on their fitness levels. Water and Energade will be provided at the finish line.
Start times: Remember, final batch times will be communicated to you via mail on the day prior to the event.
- 15km batches start at 7:15am
- 10km batches start at 7:45am
- 5km batches start at 8:45am
- 2km fun run will take place at 9:45am
Prizes:
Prizes will be awarded to the winning male and female runner in each category. Spot prizes from our sponsors will also be given away during the day.
Boerie rolls, bacon and egg toasted sarmies, and coffee will be served at the finish line. These will be limited so please ensure you purchase meals upon entry. Runners are welcome to bring picnic baskets along and spend an afternoon under the African skies with their families.
