RUN99 Begins the Journey.
RUN100 Makes History.

At the 99th Comrades, iTOO and RUN99 are kicking off something extraordinary: a year-long sneaker collection campaign with a single, ambitious goal — to break a Guinness World Record at the 100th Comrades Marathon.

Every pair collected will be donated to underprivileged runner communities across South Africa, giving more people the chance to experience the freedom of running.

The road to the 100th is built one pair at a time.
