Welcome to Africa Marathons
We are the only company that specialises exclusively in fully guided trips for international runners to the top running events in Africa. Our intimate knowledge and passion for these events is unsurpassed. We'd love to have you join Rob, Clyde & the team at one of these amazing marathons. We will share these truly wonderful experiences with like minded people in a friendly, fun and wholly supportive team environment and return home having achieved your goals with memories to last a lifetime.
Our co-founder Rob has run all of the 'Big 3' races we offer in South Africa. Comrades - both the 'Up 'and 'Down' Run, Two Oceans Ultra, and the Cape Town Marathon, so he will be there for any advice, help and support you need in the build up to the trip and on the trip itself.
Clyde, our other co-founder, is an ex-long distance runner and professional safari guide, and he is on hand throughout our trips to ensure everyone is looked after, supported and of course is there at the right moment to give out those all important (and swiftly becoming famous) hugs!

Covering 90 kilometres isn’t just a test of physical endurance, it’s a profound mental challenge filled with emotions you can’t fully anticipate. But if there’s one thing to keep in mind when you cross that finish line and the medal is placed around your neck, it’s this: soak it all in. Embrace every single moment, because you’ve accomplished something most people wouldn’t even dare to attempt.
Welcome to the @comradesmarathon club. Who making their membership count in 2025?
Things we love to see: Our A(M) team smashing big goals, even when the startline isn’t South African 😏
Some big performances over the last few weeks, from Lake Districts ‘Laps’ to some @comradesmarathon qualification marathons it’s safe to say training for 2025 has officially begun. Watch this space 👀
