RACE INFO
COMPULSORY GEAR
Due to the variable and potentially dangerous weather experienced in the Drakensberg, the compulsory gear list is taken very seriously by the organisers. Compulsory gear will be checked at registration (not at the race start) as well as at the finish. A missing item will result in a time penalty and more than one missing item will result in disqualification. Please make sure you thoroughly check the compulsory gear lists.
AID STATION FOOD BREAKDOWN
Aid stations along the route will provide a selection of food and hydration to support you through the race. Offerings typically include a mix of sweet and savoury options such as fruit, sandwiches, biscuits, soups, and energy products, along with water and electrolyte drinks.
