For the trail run option the entry fee is R50 for the 5km and R100 for the 10KM​ - Prize money - 1st in each category gets 3 x entry fee back, 2nd gets 2 x entry fee back and 3rd gets their entry fee back​. Then for those dads who want to ​do the Amorello ​challenge ​sign up for the Trail Run Safari to be held on Sunday.

Dad doesn’t need a cape to be a hero; all he has to do is enter The Amorello Challenge, so get dad a ticket today! The general entry fee ​for MTB ​ is R100 for the 10km, R120 for the 25km and R180 for the 50km and only includes a ticket into the race selected.
