Do you Doo-dle…?
We know the KZNTR community is packed with creativity, and this time it’s your creativity that needs to run wild!
We are designing a brand new KZNTR Funky Pants print and want YOU to be part of it!
Send us your trail-inspired doodles – think muddy shoes, mountain silhouettes, route maps, backpacks, finish lines, trees, wildlife…anything that captures the spirit of trail running.
No AI. No filters. Just pure, original, human creativity.
High-resolution, hand-drawn, full-colour doodles welcome.
Email entries to lauren@kzntrailrunning.co.za by Friday 14 November.
Don’t overthink it – but do…doodle!
Your art could become part of the next official KZNTR Funky Pants design!
See you on the trails,
Andrew, Lauren, Sanele, Dane and the rest of the Team!
