Sport Relief Mile

Join the team… bring your family, friends and let’s have some fun!


Sport Relief started in the UK eight years ago and more than 400 000 people took part in the last event in 2008.

The Sport Relief Mile has now come to South Africa, which means you can join thousands of South Africans for a day of fun, competition and goodwill.

On Sunday 21st March 2010, hundreds of thousands of people will take to the streets all over the UK. Now you, your family and friends can unite with them in Cape Town to do something great.

It gets better - joining you will be South African sports heroes, personalities and celebrities, doing their bit to help raise money for children in real need.  

For more details, be sure to read our article Sprint Selflessly in Cape Town’s First Sport Relief Mile.
