A tough race no matter what distance you choose, the 3 courses at PheZulu need to be treated with respect! The routes traverse through a game reserve and animals such as Giraffe, Zebra, and Wildebeest are regular spectators on this trail. The hilltop grasslands are wide open and the valley bush is thick – considering the venue is so close to Durban and Hillcrest, you could not ask for wilder. The PheZulu field team are constantly working on these trails to provide the best tracks possible!
Entry includes entry into the game reserve, a breakfast roll, 1 x free entry to Reptile Park and 10% shopping discount on the day.
Registration from 6:00 – 7:30 am. Please arrive with plenty of time to process your registration. Please note that there will be no late entries available on the day of the event.
