I’ve run some of the largest and best supported races in the world. I’ve run the 6 World Majors. Many of my friends will consider that Boston, with it’s traditions and knowledgable crowds, is the greatest race. Others perhaps New York, or London. In the past I may have agreed, But not anymore. Comrades is bigger, and better. If you have a running bucket list – put this race on it. Somehow, someway, get yourself to South Africa and run it. It’s long, it’s hot, it’s hard, there are undoubtably going to be times it will suck – but from the singing of Shozaloza at the start, to the finish with a lap of a cricket stadium, and all the miles, support and camaraderie in between – it’s a frigging amazing experience ! I promise you you won’t regret it. I ran it in 2015 and 2016, and I suspect I’ll be going back again.
Below I’ve posted my race report from 2015, and a video I took of the singing at the start.
