Comrades 2022 takes place on Sunday, 28 August 2022.

With 150 days to go to #Comrades2022 race day on Sunday, 28 August, there is still hope for aspirant international entrants in this year’s Down Run.

The latest Comrades 2022 entry stats

The Comrades Marathon Association (CMA) has issued the latest entry stats with the entry tally standing at 11,019. Runners from nearly 60 countries have entered so far with the United Kingdom, India and Zimbabwe leading the pack of international entrants.

We encourage you to get in contact with us to secure one of the last spots in this year’s Comrades Marathon.

Top 10 Countries:

Country	Male	Female	Total

Comrades Marathon Association (CMA) Race Director, Rowyn James said, “While more than half of the 15,000-entry cap for the 2022 Comrades Marathon was claimed in the first day of the entry process, the entry uptake has slowed down. This means that aspirant Comrades entrants who did not enter the 2020 Comrades and therefore could not secure their entry in the first entry window period (23 to 31 March 2022), will have the chance to do so in the second entry window period (20 April to 16 May 2022).”
