Run đť–´nbold. Run đť–´nbrave. Raise testicular and prostate cancer awareness. Run cancer out of town
Join us for the Daredevil Run, a unique event where brave men don their purple Speedos and take to the streets to raise awareness of testicular and prostate cancer. In partnership with CANSA (Cancer Association of South Africa) and the PCF (Prostate Cancer Foundation), we’re not just running but making a difference in men's health.
On 01 November 2024, thousands of daring men will run through the streets of Mzansi (South Africa) in nothing but Speedos and takkies. Why? Because testicular and prostate cancers are generally highly treatable when caught early. Partnering with CANSA and the PCA, we raise awareness to enable men to take their health seriously.

Running in a Speedo may seem wild, but it’s for a serious cause—testicular cancer is most common in men aged 15-35 and is one of the most treatable cancers when detected early. By baring it all, we’re encouraging men to be bold enough to check themselves and take proactive steps for their health.
Testimonial: “Participating in the Daredevil Run was a powerful experience for me. I ran for my friend who fought and survived testicular cancer. It was a fun way to make a difference and raise cancer awareness.” Angelo, 2019 Participant
“It’s 5 kilometres, a Speedo and an unforgettable experience taking place in various centres around South Africa. Whether you sprint, jog, or walk, every step you take is a step towards raising awareness and raising funds for cancer research. One hundred percent (100%) of proceeds from the event go directly to supporting testicular cancer research and other cancer awareness programs. Last year, we raised nearly R700,000, which funded early detection initiatives for men.” Oscar, 2023 Participant
