Jikeleza Jog
Jikeleza Jog

Run free along miles of empty beaches and undulating hills, following the paths of sure-footed cattle and fisherman.

The Jikeleza Jog takes place along an 80km stretch of the Wild Coast, from Mazeppa Bay through to Cintsa - over three days; an experience no runner should miss.

Held over a full moon weekend, runners can take advantage of hard-pack beaches, lower chances of rain and comfortable daily temperatures. Whilst distances are intended at making racing teams work for their times with a tactical approach; they will provide a fair but manageable challenge to rookies of the sport.

If this is your first multi-day stage event it's the perfect race to start on. Spectacular terrain, doable distances and a fun vibe; it offers ample challenge and contest for all. The route is unmarked and unmanned, but basic maps are provided and keeping the sea on your left will guide you to the finish each day. Participants will race as pairs, with some compulsory check-points to collect enroute.

Contact: Sarah on +27 (0)84 240-7277 for more information.

Please Note: Dates for this event to be confirmed.
