• Glow in the Dark themed

Participants are encouraged to wear neon or brightly coloured clothing, accessories, and bring glow sticks to light up the trails. Get creative and embrace the theme—the best dressed participant will win a prize!

As sections of the route may extend into low-light conditions, participants are strongly encouraged to bring a headlamp for their safety and comfort.

Dogs are welcome! We love having your four-legged companions join us. For everyone's safety and enjoyment, all dogs must remain on a leash at all times.

After your run, relax and enjoy the vibrant trail community atmosphere with boerewors rolls and refreshments available for purchase.

Come for the run, stay for the community, support a great cause, and experience the magic of the trails at twilight. We can't wait to see you there!

Support Team Jabberwock

This event is also an opportunity to help Team Jabberwock on their journey to the Adventure Racing World Championships in Corsica, France.

After winning the African Adventure Racing Championships at Expedition Africa 2026, the team earned a place at the World Championships. While their race entry is covered, they still need to raise funds for flights, transport, equipment logistics, and other travel expenses.

We're asking for your support—any donation, big or small, will make a meaningful difference and will help Team Jabberwock proudly represent South Africa on the world stage. Thank you for being part of their journey!
