Online entries for the 2012 Cape Town Marathon have officially opened. The marathon route offers elite athletes the chance to post a fast marathon time and the eight hour cut-off allows first timers and walkers the chance to complete the distance with no pressure.
The event is a qualifier for the 2013 Comrades and Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon and offers participants a fast, flat route starting in Cape Town’s city centre, taking runners out to Rondebosch before looping back to the City via the V&A Waterfront, Sea Point and the Green Point Common.
The marathon and 10km start in Adderley Street at 06h30 and finish on the Green Point Common Fields. The 10km has a two hour cut-off, so walkers are also welcome as they have ample time to complete the event and earn their medal.
The Cape Town 5km Fun Run, at 16h30, and the Cape Town 5 x 4.2km Inter Club / Company / School Relays, at 14h30, take place on Saturday 22 September from the Green Point Common Fields. The events are open to everyone; family, friends, supporters and especially children.
