Gorgeous scenery, the warm tones of the sun waving goodbye and a road race sounds like a pretty sweet deal for those seeking an evening adventure. If you’re keen on switching up your plans and looking to put ‘Netflix and chill’ on pause, there’s an awesome event lined up.
Grab your running shoes for a night on the town at The Crazy Store’s Lighthouse Ten Night Race! This 10km night run is expected to be ‘the best race yet’, allowing runners the opportunity to enjoy the scenic setting sun against the Atlantic Ocean.

There are also 1st, 2nd and 3rd place cash prizes for each age category ranging from R250 – R1000!
