Sanlam Cape Town Marathon EXCO Chairman
I
n a remarkably short space of time
the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon
became the first and only IAAF gold
label marathon on the African continent,
the first global marathon with zero waste
to landfill and is fast becoming Africa’s “must
run” marathon.
We have a special team of partners who have shown a tremendous amount of
dedication in growing the event every year. As a team we have a dream to make the
Sanlam Cape Town Marathon a major marathon on the worlds running calendar.
We have listened to our athletes and made a number of changes to the course, it is
fast and flat and beautiful. Enjoy your run!
