With just days to go, Zsports Events SA is calling on women across Nelson Mandela Bay and beyond to secure their place in the 2025 Pretty in Pink Ladies 5km.
Taking place on Saturday, 9 August 2025, this flagship Women’s Day celebration kicks off from King’s Beach under this year’s powerful theme: Wildly Inspired. Online registration is still open at www.Ladies5km.co.za, but with limited space remaining, final entries are strongly encouraged.
All participants will receive a race number, and any entries before 6 August will qualify for an official event t-shirt and a premium goody bag. This event supports two vital women-focused charities: Vision4Women and PinkDrive.
The 5km route offers a fast, flat and scenic experience, taking participants along the beachfront promenade and back. Whether you’re running with intent or walking with friends, the route caters to all fitness levels and is designed to be both fun and accessible. A water station will be available along the way, with a lively event village bringing energy and celebration from start to finish.
Race pack collection has been scheduled to accommodate all participants. Collection will take place at Pick n Pay, Walmer Park Shopping Centre, on Wednesday 6 August and Thursday 7 August between 12:00 and 18:00. Alternatively, participants can collect their packs at the Kings Beach race venue on Friday 8 August from 16:00 to 18:00, or on race day, Saturday 9 August, from 08:00 to 09:45.
Participants must collect before the race starts.
Ladies and supporters are encouraged to dress boldly in PINK, in line with the Wildly Inspired theme. A full range of official merchandise is available for order online, including t-shirts, hoodies, vests, tutus, visors, caps, bottles, waist bags, backpacks, and PinkDrive items.
