About Race Hopper
Race Hopper is South Africa's home for endurance events. Whether you run, ride, swim, or do all three, we make it easy to find your next race — and to keep track of the ones you've signed up for.
What is Race Hopper?
Race Hopper is a calendar and discovery platform for endurance events across South Africa — road running, trail running, road cycling, mountain biking, gravel, open water swimming, pool events, triathlons, duathlons and more. Instead of hunting across dozens of organizer websites and social media pages, you can see everything in one place, filter it to what you're looking for, and find the race that fits.
For athletes
Browse the full calendar of upcoming events, or switch to the map to find races near you. Filter by sport, province, or distance, or search for a specific event by name. Create a free account and you can build your own race calendar — save any event to your personal dashboard and watch a live countdown tick down to race day. Every event links straight through to the official entry page, so you're always one click from signing up.
For event organizers
If you organize an endurance event, Race Hopper is a free way to get it in front of the right audience. Use the List your event page to submit yours — paste your event's web page and we'll automatically pull in the details, so it takes just a minute. Once you submit, we review your event and, when it's approved, it goes live on the calendar and the map. You'll get an email at each step, and there's no cost to list your event.
