OMTOM 56km Ultra Marathon - 20 April 2019
The Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon is a 56 km (35 mile) ultra marathon held annually in Cape Town, South Africa on the Saturday of the Easter weekend. Self-proclaimed as “the world’s most beautiful marathon", the ultra-marathon will take place on Easter Saturday, 20 April 2019 in Cape Town. The 56km route will remain the same as usual. The race is run against a backdrop of spectacular scenery through the Cape Peninsula. It is as stunning as it is challenging. The very popular half marathon is also held on the same day as the ultra marathon, but does not include Chapman's Peak Drive. Route Information

Chapman's Peak Drive itself is the iconic climb of the Ultra Marathon, and it's one of the most beautiful sections of road anywhere in the world. It also ushers in the tough second half of the race, coming shortly after the halfway mark in Noordhoek. In order to assist the race organisers and to provide the competitors with a remarkable route, Chapman's Peak Drive will be temporarily closed for this annual Cape Town event.
