On 7 December 2025, the Sedibeng Marathon welcomes runners to the Vaal Showgrounds in Vereeniging, Gauteng for a full day of road running across four distances: a 42.2 km marathon, 21.1 km half marathon, 10 km race, and a 5 km fun run/walk. The event follows the rules of ASA and AVT and is staged on paved roads around the Vaal Triangle, providing a mostly flat, runnable profile with plenty of space to settle into pace. The marathon distance serves as a Comrades Marathon qualifier, making it especially attractive to South African runners looking to secure a seeding time. With early-morning start times, generous cut-offs and a mix of competitive athletes and social runners, it delivers a friendly, community-focused atmosphere alongside serious racing opportunities.
