About the race
Run The Farm at Herold Wines is a 12-hour trail endurance race held on a marked mountain loop of 5 km. The event takes place on a wine farm in Herold, Western Cape, and offers individual and team formats alongside a single-lap fun run.
Participants can enter as:
- Individual (accumulate as many laps as possible in 12 hours)
- Team of 2 (combined laps for the team)
- Team of 4 (combined laps for the team)
- Fun Run/Walk (one lap)
The overall objective is to complete the most laps in the 12-hour period; results and winners are determined by total laps completed. Competitors must complete each loop before leaving the course, non-competitors are not permitted on the course, and slower participants must allow faster competitors to pass. Fun run participants may complete their one lap.
Facilities at the race village include a designated start/finish area for refueling and resting between loops, an aid station and race support, medical support, a shared hangout area, marked and prepared mountain trail, vendor stalls, and toilet facilities. There are no showers, but a natural pool is available on site. Participants may set up gazebos and tents from the day before. A sports massage therapist will be available on race day though spots are limited. Finishers medals are provided only to participants in the 12-hour challenge.
