Amanzimtoti parkrun

Amanzimtoti parkrun Amanzimtoti parkrun is an organized, free, weekly, 5km timed run/walk which takes place on the beach

The course commences and concludes on the Lagoon side, positioned along the promenade in front of L'Escalier Cabanas 107. It initially heads north towards Amanzimtoti Main Beach, traversing through the Main Beach and picnic areas. Upon reaching the 1.6km mark, the course takes a turn onto the beach, offering participants a scenic stretch encompassing sea, sky, and sand dunes for 2.5 km before retu

rning to the promenade beyond the main beach area. To complete the circuit, follow the promenade, ascend the ramp, and rejoin the promenade, ultimately returning to the starting point at the South end of the course.

Amanzimtoti Parkrun - 23rd May 2026 🌊

What an absolutely beautiful morning down at the promenade! πŸŒ…

Some highlights for us were;

1. Jonathan TEMPIES, Thamsanqa NZAMA and Mpumelelo SIMELANE all trying to chase down the mighty veteran Daniel SWART for 4th place! Who all finished within 4 seconds of each other. I LOVE a good sprint finish!! The timekeepers were almost wiped out.
πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

2. Also whislt scanning results I noticed Ayesha BEHR who did her second ever parkrun!! Shes in the 11-14 year old age group, she did a PB and......... she was the FIRST FEMALE OVER THE LINE! Looks like we have a little legend in the making here - GO GIRL!! πŸ’ƒ

Lets us know in the comments... what highlights did we miss? Any personal highlights or victories, or notes of interest???
