One thing that cannot be disputed about the Comrades Marathon is its power to unite and inspire.
It’s difficult to find exact statistics, but I would imagine Comrades is one of the most successful sporting events in the world when it comes to turning non-runners into runners.
That’s the thing about Comrades. Almost anyone can do it.
But just because almost anyone can do it, doesn’t mean it’s easy. In fact, it’s one of the most gruelling and demanding physical challenges on the planet.
