“In addition to creating excitement in the buildup to the 2023 Absa RUN YOUR CITY CAPE TOWN 10K, the PUMA NITRO DEMO RUNS also give runners and walkers the opportunity to #WearTeat PUMA’s newest range of road running shoes,” says Michael Meyer, Managing Director of Stillwater Sports and Founder of the Absa RUN YOUR CITY Series. “Runners will be able to determine which PUMA shoes best suit their running styles.

It’s the perfect way to get fit and/or test your fitness. You’ll also get to meet fellow runners while getting to know the event team.
