Jaws677 Posted June 10, 2018 Share I made it. [emoji3]We got stuck on the highway I had to run 2km to the start and started right at the back. Knew my target time of sub 10 was out the window but still managed to get 10:36 We left Durban at 230. Can't believe the organisers took the highway down to one lane. But I still had a great time and enjoyed the day.

candz1 Posted June 11, 2018 Share I was there in Hillcrest at the water table and watched everyone coming past...Jess is my hero!! She was looking so strong and running easily along, very focused look on her face. Well done to everyone, all amazing...it is something I will never attempt.

SeaBee Posted June 11, 2018 Share Congrats everybody - that is super! Andrew - great to see your training strategy worked!  Friend of mine was running in Jess' vicinity most of the time. She came in about a min after Jess. Though at the pace she (my friend) set off I thought she was going out way too fast. But they just kept going. Awesome! Andrew Steer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hacc Posted June 11, 2018 Share What a day. All I can say is I survived. Yesterday was by far my toughest Comrades. I didn't have plan, I just wanted to finish. I achieved that goal. My back and glute started aching at 16km into the race. I took some pain medication but nothing seemed to help. The thought of stopping went 1000 times through my mind. The thought of a DNF next to my name kept me going. It still feels unreal that I finished. I was walking the last 3 km when I realized I had enough time to make it. I guess the lesson learned from this Comrades is that you need to be in tip top shape to run this grueling race. (and yes we as runners ignore this rule too often)  Congratulations to some excellent times guys!! Wow Barry I am so impressed with your wife. Andrew, well done to you and your wife. Ferret, that is some excellent running!! Lexx, that is an amazing time. Your hard work paid off. Enjoy the well deserved rest. I am going drinking now with my club mates.  Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk tjommies3, shaper, Raab and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottCM Posted June 11, 2018 Share Well done to all. I must say, watching on TV , it felt like there was less atmosphere in the stadium as I'm so use to the billboards being slapped (on both sides and for a longer distance as the runners run around the field. How did you guys find the new stadium finish compared to Kingmead, besides the extra km that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you guys find the new stadium finish compared to Kingmead, besides the extra km that is?Absolutely terrible. The clubs couldn't see the runners coming in. After you finished you walk forever to get back into the stadium. Once you are back there are no signs where you are. I prefer the old stadium.  Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk ScottCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
