The race will see top athletes as well as women participating for fun take to the streets.

More than 14 000 women will take to the streets of the Mother City tomorrow for the SPAR Women’s Challenge incorporating the SPAR Grand Prix at the Greenpoint Stadium precedent.

There is also a special incentive for South African runners. The South African woman with the most SPAR Grand Prix points will receive an additional R75 000, the second-placed South African R50 000 and the third-placed South African R30 000. The defending SPAR Grand Prix champion, three-times winner Tadu Nare of Ethiopia and her Nedbank teammate Selam Gebre will miss the opening race this year, but Nedbank International manager Nick Bester says they will take part in some of the other races.“We have entered two juniors, Diniya Kedir Abaraya and Getenesh Agafaw, and will use the SPAR races to develop them into world-class athletes like Tadu and Salem.

Xaba, who is the last South African to win the SPAR Grand Prix, is in blistering form. She won the South Africa 10km Championship earlier this month at altitude in a quick 33:00.
