![]() When runners head off the highway they turn onto Kendal Road at about 7 km. In the past, it was still quite dark at this point because the race began extremely early due to being on the same day as the Ultra, but this year, because they have a later start the sky should be lightening up by now.įrom here, runners head down the M3, this is a nice, fast section of the route on the highway. Runners start on Main Road, which is slightly uphill, you won’t notice that because it’s probably the flatter part of the whole route… just before runners reach Cavendish they turn right onto Protea Road, where they will begin a gradual uphill all the way to Paradise Road.Īs you approach Paradise Road runners turn left onto Edinburgh Drive, what I call Wynberg Hill… this is a really long, hard climb. ![]() One of the important things to note about the Two Oceans Half Marathon is that the race start is quite challenging. ![]() It means that you’re not trying to catch up for a few lost minutes.
