POSTPONED

It is with regret that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we must postpone the Adventure HQ Sand Burn event. We hope that we will be able to re-introduce this event to race calendar in the very near future. Your registration fee will be credited back to you with immediate effect, please allow a few days for it to appear in your account. Our apologies for the inconvenience, we were looking forward to it too. Check out the Mt. Sana 60, 10k or 21k, happening on the 11th December if you are looking for your next trail challenge.

This unique vertical race will have you race up and down a 200m high, 600m long sand dune – sounds easy right? Well, it’s no ultra, but physically, it’s super demanding and will have your legs burning and lungs screaming in pain! Super simple format: Complete a total of THREE dune climbs, race up to the flag and back down, you can rest in between as long as you like, but the one that rests the least and runs the fastest will win!

Who will be crowned the Urban-Ultra Sand Burn champions?

For this race you do not need to carry mandatory kit. Water, electrolyte and fruit will be available at the start/finish point. Sand gaiters would be a good call, but it’s up to you, you can empty your shoes on each loop if you prefer. No specialist equipment required. It’s just YOU vs THE DUNE!
