We commissioned special trophies for 2023 which category winners will be able to take home with them.
The stunning trophies have been created by Andre Dalton, owner of Snowflake No 598 (12 Rhodes Run medals). There are three different trophies, each has blue is the main colour symbolising the cold our runners experience.
The King of the Kloof and Queen of the Kloof trophies are of Mavis Bank with barbed wire along the ridge. Everyone who has pulled themselves up Mavis Bank will understand why we have that strand of barbed wire.
Our first Male and first Lady in 2023 will receive a trophy which has a bell as the outline, with the route profile inset. The bell represents the Church Bell which is rung when our winner reaches the village. It also references the Bell River which the route crosses and the traditional early morning ‘wake up’ bell.
Each of our age group category winners will receive the route profile.
These trophies are in addition to the usual floating trophies which will also be presented at prizegiving.
