Deadly Dozen Launches First-Ever Event in South Africa

The Deadly Dozen is also making waves in South Africa, with our first-ever event in the country taking place tomorrow in Cape Town! Pippa and Bex from Deadly Dozen HQ have arrived and are excited to witness this historic moment.

We’ll be working alongside Cameron Cleaver, our South African Strategic Director, to help run his first Deadly Dozen event—an exciting step toward building the event in this region.

With the stunning backdrop of Table Mountain, a buzzing atmosphere, and some of the toughest competitors around, this event is set to be unforgettable. Our expansion into South Africa is already gaining momentum, with our Johannesburg event on May 3rd now over halfway sold out. It’s clear that the appetite for fitness racing here is huge, and we can’t wait to see how far we can grow.

As one of the most accessible fitness races ever created, the Deadly Dozen is designed for everyone—from elite athletes to those taking on their first major fitness challenge. To help competitors prepare, we’ll be working with gyms across South Africa to host local gym races, giving participants the chance to experience Deadly Dozen movements while setting smaller goals in between our major track events. Our athlete-first approach ensures that from registration to race day, you’ll be part of a community that puts your success at the forefront.

Whether you’re competing or spectating, we’ll be there to make sure you have an incredible race-day experience. If you see us, come say hi—we’d love to connect with the local fitness community and celebrate this exciting new chapter for Deadly Dozen in South Africa!

Event Date: March 22, 2025
