Entry Details

Both TTOM Ultra and Half Marathon have a guaranteed entry pool for Blue and Yellow number holders.

Blue and Yellow number holders receive priority entry. You will be invited to apply on a first come, first served basis.

* If the entry limit is reached before the closing date to get into the draws, Blue and Yellow number holders who did not secure a guaranteed entry will automatically go into Ultra Marathon Draw 1 and Half Marathon Draw 1.

Criteria

A Blue Number is awarded to any runner who has completed 10 Ultra or Half Marathons, or Trail Runs; or who has achieved a gold medal in the Ultra Marathon 5 times; or who has won the Half Marathon, Ultra Marathon or Trail Run (any distance) 3 times.

Seeding

All Blue Number Club (BNC) Members must run a qualifier if running the Ultra and a seeding time if running the Half.

Qualifiers and seeding times must be submitted before the profile update deadline.

BNCs receive preferential seeding.

Unless the BNC member has submitted a qualifier or seeding time that seeds them in a higher batch, they will be grouped in a batch approximately halfway down the field.

Hospitality

At Expo, a dedicated BNC lounge is set aside for participants who hold a permanent number in the race they’ve entered.

Qualifying runners will receive an armband when collecting their race pack, granting access to the BNC lounge. Catch up with fellow BNC entrants or enjoy a quiet moment away from the bustle of expo while enjoying a beverage.

Runners who have a permanent number in the race they’ve entered  also receive entry to the BNC marquee (at the finish) on the day of their race. Entry to either the Half or Ultra marquee is for any BNC members who have run the Half or Ultra respectively on the day of entry to the marquee. Celebrate your proud achievement and receive your double or triple laurels after your race!

BNC Dinner: Thursday, 1 April 2027, 6.30 PM – UCT VIP Marquee

Fee: R450 per seat

 

Going the distance

9Miles Project works with disadvantaged and at-risk youth from marginalized communities in Cape Town (particularly the informal settlements in Strandfontein) as well as Elands Bay on the West Coast, and Sea Vista in the Eastern Cape.

Our vision is to offer safe spaces and structured after-school and welfare programs that nurture and empower vulnerable youth and build healthier and more resilient families and communities.

Transformation is achieved through surf therapy, food aid (including a community food program that serves 700 meals per day), supplementary academic support, life skills, and leadership training, educational trips, community events, and day-to-day mentorship and holistic support.

Our slogan “going the distance” is not just something nice to say. We walk a long road with people and passionately believe that everyone is perfect for their purpose, that human potential is unlimited, that with the right support all youth can flourish.
