  Comrades Marathon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Big Five are hills on the route of the Comrades Marathon and, on the up run they appear in the following order: Cowies Hill, Field's Hill, Botha's Hill, Inchanga, and finally, Polly Shortts.
On the down run there are an equally challenging set of hills, and many runners are surprised that a race described as down still has some exceptionally tough hills to climb, including Inchanga, Alverstone, Bothas Hill and Cowies Hill.
The race was the idea of World War I veteran Vic Clapham, to commemorate the South African soldiers killed during the war.

From the top of Botha's Hill to the base of Cowie's Hill there is a drop of over 500 m in just 22 km.
This ratio is a function of the length of hill, the steepness of the hill and the distance from the start.
In comparison to the other hills, Cowies is not so awesome but combined with the recent decent of Fields and the flat section of Pinetown, the 1km climb up Cowies is quite formidable.
