Celebrating its 13th<\/sup> anniversary at the iconic Houw Hoek Hotel (Western Cape) the weekend of 17 \u2013 19 March 2023, SA\u2019s premier three-day stage trail run, the AFRICANX TRAILRUN <\/strong>will once again close off on a high note with entrants vying for the coveted title of \u201cBest Dressed Team\u201d on Sunday during the third and final stage of the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cDress Up Day is one of the many highlights of the <\/strong>AFRICANX TRAILRUN<\/strong>,\u201d says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports and Event Founder. \u201cThe competition is fierce, with trail runners pulling out all the stops to secure the coveted \u2018Best Dressed Team\u2019 title. The trail running community has a wicked sense of humour. In 2022 we had runners dressed as super-heroes, peacocks, beer ladies, doctors and nurses, firefighters, lifesavers, minions, even a boxer and his coach to mention just a few examples.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dress Up competition definitely brings additional excitement to the final stage of the AFRICANX TRAILRUN <\/strong>when runners are feeling tired after two consecutive days of running,\u201d continues Meyer. \u201cWith Stage Three being the shortest of the three stages, Dress Up Day gives runners the boost needed to complete the stage on a high note. Runners are guaranteed to start the stage laughing. To be in the running to be crowned the best dressed team and win an entry into the 2024 AFRICANX TRAILRUN, we are looking for commitment and flair. Both runners need to wear their outfits for the duration of the stage, from start to finish. Don\u2019t leave it too late, get those creative juices flowing and close off the 2023 AFRICANX TRAILRUN in style by being the Best Dressed team.\u201d<\/p>\n
