Members of the Randmark Running and Cycle Club are very excited about the 94th Comrades Marathon, which is today, Sunday, 9 June.
Several Randmark athletes have been training for months in preparation for this year’s Comrades Marathon.
Yolandi Botha, 29, is going for her back-to-back medal since this is her second Comrades marathon.
I’ve wanted to do the Comrades since I was a little girl and it’s great that I accomplished it once, but I want to do it again. I enjoyed last year’s Comrades a lot.”
Randmark athlete, Casparus Luther, will be taking on his very first Comrades Marathon this year at the age of 42.
“I run because I absolutely love it. Health and fitness are a priority for me,” he said.
