THREE PEAKS EVENTS 2024

Congratulations to the winners of the 2024 Three Peaks events!

In 2024 the Three Peaks moved into a new era with the introduction of two new events in addition to the original Challenge, in which participants return to the starting point in the city after each peak.

In the “Classic” event, participants go directly from peak to peak, without returning to the start until after the final peak. The “Chill” relay event is a teams event where three participants make up a team with each person doing one peak.

History was made in the 2024 Three Peaks Challenge, with Lisa Geffen becoming the first woman to be the overall winner in the event, in a time of 6:12:08! The second finisher, and first male, was Ridhaa Fakier, in 6:15:16.

THREE PEAKS CHALLENGE 2019 presented by GONE.

Saturday, 2 November 2019 will forever be remembered in South Africa, as the day that the rugby Springboks lifted the Webb Ellis Cup for the third time …

… and for Cape Town’s biggest party since 1995.

Kane Reilly at Greenmarket Square 3

Meanwhile, the annals of the historic Three Peaks Challenge will record that, in near-perfect weather conditions, top trail runner Kane Reilly obliterated the existing race record with a display of running never before witnessed on the peaks that make up Table Mountain’s toughest endurance challenge. His time of 4:42,43 was more than seven minutes inside AJ Calitz’s ground-breaking 2012 time.

In a tightly-contested women’s battle, Julika Pahl prevailed over Naomi Brand to set a new women’s record. Both went quicker than Katya Soggot’s 2013 mark.

Record-breaker, Kane Reilly, with runner-up, Pete Calitz (113) and Brendan Lombard, who was third.
