Om Die Dam

Discover the legacy of Om Die Dam, a premier ultra-marathon in South Africa since 1991. Located just an hour's drive from Johannesburg or 40 minutes from Pretoria on non-race days, the route has been enhanced with wider and better roads for quicker trips. On race day, runners should plan for additional time, exploring scenic routes that invite a second lap desire. Consider making a weekend of it, indulging in race recovery, celebrations, and exploring nearby attractions from game lodges to craft markets. The breathtaking backdrop of the Hartbeespoort Dam adds to the allure, making Om Die Dam more than a race – it's a memorable weekend escape.
