Absa RUN YOUR CITY Cape Town 10K
Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by PUMA
Runners are you ready! Now’s the time to lace-up your trainers as we prepare to run through the final quarter of 2020 with the Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by PUMA!
Following the excitement of the Run Your City Series (RYCS) Heritage Day Virtual Run, event organisers, Stillwater Sports are excited to give runners (and walkers) another opportunity to WIN BIG while staying ACTIVE!
Consisting of four bi-weekly 5km runs that will start and finish at a designated venue in Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg, the Friday 5K Pop Up Run Series powered by PUMA is free of charge. Runners do, however, need to sign up.
EXCITING NEWS the first 50 entries (per run/per city) will receive a limited-edition t-shirt! For a touch of flair each run will have a colour theme with the event t-shirt correlating with that theme.
Runners who take part in all four runs will be rewarded with a limited edition RYCS medal and headscarf after the final run.
