Starting on 20 November in Eldorado Park, Johannesburg, the team battled intense heat, thunderstorms and fatigue as they ran day and night over three days.
According to the South African Society of Psychiatrists, South Africa ranks 10th globally for suicide rates, with 10,861 of the 13,774 suicides in 2022 being men.

"As a man, I feel as if we do not have a voice when it comes to our mental health."
