CJM'S Events - The Documentary
What makes someone get up before sunrise to run a marathon?
Why do people keep coming back to the start line year after year?
At CJM'S Events, we've always believed that Every Number Has a Story.
This documentary takes you behind the scenes of CJM'S Events and explores the passion, dedication and community that have shaped our events over the past two decades. It's a story about far more than running, cycling and walking, it's about people challenging themselves, supporting one another and creating memories that last a lifetime. We love creating these for all participants.
Produced by Mya Hayward and Kranauw Oberholzer as part of their Broadcasting studies at ARA, this documentary captures the heart of CJM'S Events and what it takes to make these events possible.
A huge thank you to Mya & Kranauw for the time, creativity and passion they invested in producing this documentary. We're incredibly proud to share it with you.
If you've ever stood on one of our start lines—or are thinking about joining us for the first time—we hope you'll enjoy this journey.
