Two Oceans qualification
Checked 2026-08-20The 2027 Ultra requires a qualifying marathon or longer race. The Half Marathon uses a recent 10km, 15km or 21km time for seeding rather than an Ultra-style entry standard.

- Ultra qualifiers must be standard World Athletics-affiliated marathons or longer races.
- The qualifying course must be officially measured and the race officially timed.
- Half Marathon runners may submit a 10km, 15km or 21km performance for seeding.
