Bringing together women from all walks of life, the Challenge takes place on Sunday, June 24 with its start in Masabalala Yengwa Avenue just outside the finish venue at the Jonsson Kings Park outer fields.
Now in its 29th year the race continues to appeal to participants of all ages and sporting levels.
The 5km fun run/walk offers an opportunity for social runners and walkers to enjoy a relatively flat course, while the 10km, part of the national SPAR Grand Prix series, provides elite runners an opportunity to clock up points and move up the log with the overall cash prize of R185 000 in sight.

“We are capping the overall race numbers at 17 500 for ease of access to the venue and to ensure excess numbers don’t detract from one’s enjoyment of soaking up the great Durban winter weather and the views along the beachfront,” says Max Oliva, MD of SPAR KZN. “We look forward to once again welcoming so many amazing women who truly take advantage of the opportunity to achieve some lifestyle goals.”
