With the race weekend fast approaching, the organisers of the Totalsports Two Oceans Marathon are offering runners a special way to commemorate your hard-earned achievement.
Two Oceans Marathon has once again been awarded the coveted Gold Label Status by the International Association of Ultrarunners (IAU) ahead of the highly anticipated 2025 race.
The weekend starts with the 56km ultra-marathon being run on Saturday, April 5, while the 21.1km half-marathon will take place the following day.
The Two Oceans Marathon organisers say they have record highs of international entries for this yearβs races, with runners from all over the world taking part.
Runners will be able to personalise the medals they earn during the races by getting them engraved at the finish line or in the days after the event.
HERE IS EVERYTHING YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE MEDAL ENGRAVING
Pre-paid Medal Engraving at the Finish Line
If you've pre-paid for medal engraving, simply head to the Barksole station at the UTCT Sports Centre after crossing the finish line. Your official race time will be engraved onto your medal β a lasting reminder of your incredible accomplishment.
