FOLLOWING months of no sporting events, Waterra was excited to announce its new Terra Firma Trail Running Series that will kick off on Saturday, 27 March at the Phezulu Safari Park and Estate in Botha’s Hill.
Building on its experience when hosting obstacle course races, the hosts of Waterra will stage a trail running event every month in KwaZulu-Natal for the next 10 months.
Waterra has negotiated access to fantastic venues that will offer 5km to 7km, 10km to 12km and 18km to 22km trails.
With this range, the hosts are able to provide social runners an opportunity to challenge their friends and family while offering competitive runners, in all age categories, a chance to compete with their peers.
A series winner will be crowned in each distance and age group.
The sporting body has also partnered with The Reach for A Dream Foundation as its charity of choice and, when entering, a portion of the fee will go to a non-profit organisation.

The inaugural event will take place at the popular Phezulu Safari Park and Estate and entries are limited to 250 participants.
“All participants will be timed using the new RaceTec Toolkit and FinishTime Passport, this is a seamless competitor-orientated app created to make registration safe, secure and efficient and compliant with all current Level 1 requirements,” said Waterra director, Jason Pachon.
Thirsti Water will provide post-race refreshments for all competitors. A leader board will be available online and a prize-giving ceremony for the series winners for each age category will take place at the final event.
“Should any event be cancelled, participants will have the option to move their entry to a later event or receive a refund,” said Pachon.
