About the event

The 2024 MiWay Wally Hayward Marathon will happen on the 1st of May 2024. 

The Wally Hayward Marathon is a tribute to one of South Africa’s greatest ever athletes that has been a fixture on the road running calendar for the past 46 years - run on Workers Day.

The Wally was first run on 30 June 1977 over 42.2 km, starting & finishing at Hoërskool Verwoerdburg. A 21.1 km, 10 km, 5km fun run and a 1 Km kiddies run were later added. From 2018 the Wally will start and finish at Centurion Rugby Club (adjasent to Super Sport Park), in Centurion.

According to Runner’s World magazine, the Wally is the third largest marathon in South Africa. Approximately 11 000 athletes participated in 2019.
