UNOGWAJA CHALLENGE

Meet the Team

It is not just a race from Cape Town to Pietermaritzburg; it is a journey of inspiration, fun and togetherness born out of one man’s determination and spirit to follow his heart and participate in the Comrades Marathon. The Unogwaja Challenge commemorates Phil Masterton-Smith’s feat of 1933 by establishing a unique biathlon in South Africa where participants cycle from Cape Town to Pietermaritzburg in ten days and then run the Comrades Marathon the next day with a significant emphasis on raising funds for chosen charities. To ensure the event “grows” within the spirit of how it began we invite athletes from around the world to join the challenge each year.
