Herman vanderWilt (RSA)
Notes: 1979 was the inaugural year. For 1979-1983, the course was extremely downhill. Subsequent courses have been either point-to-point or out/back but which courses were used for which years is not known. The race was known as the Mineshaft Marathon for 1979-1990. In 2005, the distance was changed to 32 km because of a decision by Athletics South Africa to limit the number of marathons in each province.  The race distance was changed to a half marathon for 2009.
