Local runner completes the Comrades Marathon
Comrades sweat and tears leads to a medal.
Comrades Marathon has come and gone on August 28.
Heidelberg marathon runner Robin Williams (74) completed the gruelling 90.2km marathon at 11:11:50.
The route this year was from Pietermaritzburg to Durban.
Williams finished in the 8 109th position.
This is Williams’ second Comrades Marathon.
He competed in his first Comrades Marathon in 2019.
Due to Covid-19, there was no marathon running from 2019 until 2022.
Perseverance, sweat, hard work and tons of training came to a head on Comrades day and achieving a personal best and a medal made all the hard work worth every drop of sweat.
