| Editor's Notes: |
The Longest Day celebrates its 15th anniversary in 2010. The record for the race is held by Obert Ngcobo who covered 143.99 kilometres in 2003. The women's record holder is Veronica Mahlati who ran 118.64 kilometres in that same year. A quality refreshment station will be provided but you are encouraged to bring your personal team. Champion Chip record the time after every lap and there is tremendous crowd support the entire day.
Participants join the 100-kilometre Club for finishing one race. The Thousand Kilometre Club is open to all who cover the distance over a number of years. The Hall of Fame inducts all who finish 10 events.
