Last year, Asgar Dalvie and Mo Sanglay trained to run 42.2km’s in the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon in Bokkie, a two metre foam replica of an SPCA vehicle. Then Cape Town’s wind arrived with other plans. Now, they are back to finish the marathon they never got to start.
On Saturday, 25 May 2026, Dalvie and Sanglay will once again line up inside Bokkie, this time attempting a Guinness World Records title for the fastest marathon completed in a two-man car costume while raising the remaining R19,000 needed to fully fund one SPCA Inspectorate vehicle’s annual fuel costs.
Asgar and Mo have a history of running races in interesting gear:
Their campaign has already raised more than R23,000 from supporters across Cape Town and beyond. Members of the public are encouraged to support the fundraiser, cheer the runners on along the route, and help push Bokkie across the finish line. Donations can be made here.
