The cut-off time is 7 hours.

From the site:

Runners who do not pass the 25 km mark in under 3 hours 07 minutes or the marathon mark (42.2 km) in under 5 hours 17 minutes will not be allowed to continue the race. ChampionChip will record runner's split times at these km marks.

International runners are required to run a qualifying marathon /ultra marathon between 1 April 2005 and 19 March 2006. International runners who are unable to run a qualifying marathon within the qualifying period may enter the race, but they will not be seeded.


(Assuming the same window for the 2007 race, your Paris marathon would just get you in.)

Qualifying Standards
In order to qualify to run the Two Oceans Marathon, runners must have completed the distance indicated below in the time next to the distance:

Distance Time
42.2 km sub 5:00
50 km sub 6:30
56 km sub 7:00
90 km sub 12:00
100+ km sub 13:30
Other any Ultra that has been completed within the official cut-off time.



The South Africans like this sort of thing. The Comarades Marathon (56 miles) has a strict 12 hour cut-off I think, and every year the gates are slammed shut at 12 hours on the dot, even if there are people just about to make it to the line. Cruel, but I suppose it's a good incentive.
