After a two-year absence, the Totalsports Women’s Race is back in 2022 and set to take place in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban on Tuesday 9 August.
“We are thrilled to open entries for SA’s largest Women’s Day celebration, the iconic Totalsports Women’s Race,” says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports. “It’s been two years since the last Totalsports Women’s Race was hosted (due to the pandemic) making the opening of entries that much sweeter. We have a lot to celebrate and can’t wait to get the festivities started with thousands of women across three cities toeing the line on National Women’s Day. Get ready for triple the fun in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban as women from all walks of life unite to take on a 5km/10km road run (or walk) in support of PinkDrive.”

This year we would like to invite all women (grandmothers, mothers, aunts, daughters and sisters) to lace up their takkies and join us as we #RunTogether and #RunUnited in support of PinkDrive.”
