We are raising funds for various children's charities including Tzadokah Foster Home, Sylvia's House, Kingdom Kids, Esther van Zyl Foster Care - just to name a few.

3.    3 x 4 x 5 | TEAM RELAY RUN

Runners enter as a team (3, 4 or preferably 5 members per team). Team members will run laps of 3 km each. The challenge for teams will be to complete as many 3 km laps as possible in the allotted time period, i.e., 4 hours (07h30 - 11h30).  Nominate a team captain, decide on a cool name & theme for your team and bring along heaps of team spirit!

There are 3 categories to choose from:

MEN Only Team

WOMEN Only Team

MIXED Team (At least 1 woman in a 3-member team and 2 women in a 4- or 5-member team).

Involve non-runners, family, friends and/or companies, by encouraging them to sponsor your team! This way we can ALL show GRATITUDE. 

It is all about team work and supporting your team mates, while they are soaking in the exquisite surrounds of the beautiful Dornier Wines. There will be live music, prizes, lucky draws, enthusiastic athletes and sponsors supporting a worthy cause!

Online Entry fee: R700 per team

Starting Time: 07h30

It is not joy that makes us GRATEFUL, it is GRATITUDE that makes us JOYFUL!
