Join the Race For Trees

Combine your passion for making a positive impact on our environment with this prestigious race and raise funds for Greenpop’s restoration projects.

How does it work?

The first 5 people to raise or commit to 40 trees (R4800) will receive:

• Race entry to Two Oceans Ultra Marathon 2023
• A special Greenpop Tree Certificate with the forest coordinates of where your trees will be planted
• A Greenpop t-shirt
• A Two Oceans Marathon 2023 t-shirt

And if you’re still not convinced, we have some extra prizes in store for you!

• Raise 50 Trees and receive a hamper of Greenpop merchandise
• Raise 60 trees and join the Greenpop team for a day out at their nursery in Cape Town and one of their project sites, to learn about Greenpop’s work and what your fundraising is benefiting
• The fundraiser that raises the most trees of all will win a FREE ticket to Reforest Fest 2023 our annual tree-planting festival in the Overberg.

You have until 19 February 2023 to gain entry. Tickets are given to those who raise or commit to 40 trees first. We’ll keep you updated weekly on the leadership board. You can keep fundraising after this date, but all entries will be allocated on this date.

Already have a race entry?

Don’t worry! You can still raise trees and race for Greenpop, and be eligible for some amazing prizes. Your contribution is always welcomed: we need all the trees we can get!

If you are worried you won’t be the fastest fundraiser and miss your spot, you can use the fundraising minimums option here. This means you will enter your card details, and by 19 February 2023, if you haven’t raised 40 trees, your card will be charged the difference.

All Ultra runners must submit a qualifier by 6 March 2023, 5pm.
