The countdown has officially begun. There are just days to go before the Hollard Daredevil Run takes place at Zoo Lake in Johannesburg, and at various locations countrywide.
This annual initiative, which this year carries the bold tagline "Lekker Balls. Lekker Life", raises much-needed awareness about prostate and testicular cancers and reinforces the potentially life-saving importance of early detection.
Over the last 17 years, the support from Daredevils across South Africa, and beyond, has been nothing short of incredible. It is also the sense of brotherhood and shared purpose that keeps Daredevils coming back.
Hollard South Africa’s Head of Experiential Marketing, Adél Kriel, said there is bravery in putting on a purple Speedo in public.
"We know that thousands of men running in purple Speedos get people’s attention. What matters is what we do with that attention," Kriel added.
The 2026 Hollard Daredevil Run takes place at Zoo Lake in Johannesburg on Friday, October 23, at 3pm, with runs happening at various locations across the country on the same day.
Details of run locations around the country will be shared on the Daredevil Run social media platforms.
