Overview

Set against the spectacular natural beauty of Cape Town, the Totalsports TWO OCEANS MARATHON powered by BYD is one of Africa’s most iconic running events and a celebrated fixture on the global endurance calendar.

The legendary 56 km Ultra Marathon is renowned for its demanding course and sweeping views of the Cape Peninsula. From the coastal stretches to the famous climb through Constantia Nek, it is a race that rewards preparation, resilience and determination. Crossing its finish line is a proud achievement for every ultrarunner.

The 21.1 km Half Marathon offers a thrilling alternative, combining the energy of a major city race with the distinctive landscapes and vibrant atmosphere of Cape Town. It is ideal for runners seeking a memorable international half-marathon experience.

Explor42 offers confirmed race entries for both the Ultra Marathon and Half Marathon, together with planned travel and accommodation support. Join us in Cape Town for a remarkable running journey, where dramatic landscapes, passionate supporters and the spirit of Two Oceans come together to create memories that last far beyond the finish line.
