Two Oceans qualification
Checked 2026-08-20The 2027 Ultra requires a qualifying marathon or longer race. The Half Marathon uses a recent 10km, 15km or 21km time for seeding rather than an Ultra-style entry standard.
For 2027, qualifying and Half Marathon seeding performances run after 1 May 2026 are accepted.
- Ultra qualifiers must be standard World Athletics-affiliated marathons or longer races.
- The qualifying course must be officially measured and the race officially timed.
- Half Marathon runners may submit a 10km, 15km or 21km performance for seeding.
| Race distance | Required time |
|---|---|
| 42km | Under 5:00 |
| 48km | Under 6:00 |
| 50km | Under 6:30 |
| 56.6km | Under 7:00 |

Athlete briefing
Two Oceans Marathon is a running event in Cape Town, South Africa on road surface. ATHRECS lists public facts so you can decide whether to enter — it is not the official athlete guide. Next date on ATHRECS is Sat, 3 Apr 2027.
A running event. Confirm the exact distance, surface and start procedure on the official page — listings sometimes bundle more than one race on the same day.
Course maps, start lists, cut-offs, prices and eligibility live on the official page. We do not copy those documents. If a fact here disagrees with the organiser, the organiser is right.
Before you go
- Entry confirmation and start time from the official page
- Travel time to the venue, plus a buffer for parking or transit
- Weather for the start hour in the local timezone
- Distance you are actually entered in if the day has more than one race
- Surface (road, trail, track, mixed) and shoe choice
- Bag drop, toilets and start-pen time
Venue and travel
Times are local to the venue (SAST). Parking and transit are ATHRECS estimates unless a postcode lookup is stored — confirm on the official page.
