Organisers of the Platinum Trail Run presented by Isuzu announced with great excitement that FNB will be the official title sponsor of the breathtaking event in May.

The Platinum Trail Run takes place on Sunday 25 May at ATKV Buffelspoort in the North West Province and is said to encompass the best scenery and terrain the region has to offer.

Distances available (with starting times in brackets) are 24km (9.15am), 12km (9.30am) and 8km (9.30am).

According to FNB Commercial Banking CEO, Michael Vacy-Lyle, “FNB is proud to be the title sponsor of what is sure to become one of the leading sporting events in the North West Province.

“The sponsorship of the FNB Platinum Trail Run is part of our commitment to supporting sports that have potential to grow and trail running quickly is becoming a popular sporting code in South Africa.

“The support of trail running is aligned to our belief that adventure is the heart of innovation and this is one of many

platforms on which we seek to make a lasting connection with new and existing clients. We would like to encourage all participants to enjoy the race as well as the beautiful landscape of the North West Province along the chosen routes.”
