RUN FOR AFRICA

Start and finish the 42.2km Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in adidas footwear and get a R2000 online shopping voucher.

adidas is committed to rewarding all marathon runners who finish the 42.2km Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in their adidas footwear and support the goal of becoming an Abbott World Marathon Major – the first Abbott World Marathon Major in Africa. 

To attain world marathon recognition, a pivotal requirement entails the participation of 15,000 runners in a marathon event. This ambitious objective necessitates the collective involvement and successful completion of the 42.2km Sanlam Cape Town Marathon on October 15, 2023. 

Sanlam Cape Town Marathon and its sponsors are confident that, apart from consistently producing the best Marathon runners in the world, the continent has the passion and the sense of community to deliver this goal. So much so, as the proud technical sponsor, adidas has committed to rewarding all those who start, run and finish the marathon in adidas footwear with a R2 000 online shopping voucher.

The voucher’s eligibility depends entirely on the footwear runners are wearing on the day, rather than the brand they initially mentioned during registration.

It’s simple:

A testament to adidas’ determination to support Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in their goal to becoming Africa`s first World Marathon Major; and a testament to adidas’ belief in the power of the African community! 

Kate Woods, Senior Brand Director at adidas South Africa commented: “At adidas, we strive to support our partners and running communities. As a leading global sports brand, we are determined to support Africa’s rightful aspiration as an Abbott World Marathon Major. The best distance runners in the world should be able to compete on home soil. –We cannot do this alone. We require the support from our fellow South Africans. Those who step up to help us make history happen, by running and completing the 42.2km Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in adidas footwear, will be rewarded with a R2000 adidas online shopping voucher.”
