Two Oceans Marathon 2010

Power, Strength and Beauty at Cape Town's premier road-running event


The Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon is “the most beautiful marathon in the world.” The first race was held in 1970 and saw 26 runners line up to face the unknown challenge.

Participants choose from four distances in the no.1 marathon event in Cape Town in 2010:

  • 56km ultra marathon 
  • 21km half marathon 
  • 5km fun run
  • 2.5km fun run


The running event attracts close to 26 000 participants across all the distances and provides them with a mixture of breathtaking scenery, a gruelling test of fitness for both the elite and recreational runner, and an unrivalled race organisation and atmosphere.

The Two Oceans marathon is practically synonymous with the Easter Weekend in Cape Town, with pre-race activities at the expo, family day, and fun runs on Easter Friday. Entertainment en-route on the race day provides fun, excitement, and a unique experience to runners, family, friends, and spectators.

The Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon will remain on the traditional route via Chapman's Peak, Hout Bay and Constantia Nek. It starts on Main Road in Newlands.

Please note: Fun Runs: 2 April 2010 – 12:00–16:00 – R20 @ UCT Rugby Fields
