The 5km route must be completed between 24 July and 1 August and participants can increase the fun by inviting their family and friends to join as well.

Tickets must be purchased via Quicket using the following link: https://qkt.io/tCF8mb After participation, entrants can like the Boardwalk Inkwazi Shopping Centre Facebook and Instagram pages, and upload either a photo or video clip (no more than 20 seconds) of themselves participating in the event.
