Personal Message:

I learned about this race around 30 years ago ago and always thought about running it. As I am approaching my 65 birthday and my 50th year of running I thought that this may be my last chance. Running and racing is a very ego driven sport and even though this is a bucket list race for me, I wanted to make this race more meaningful. I have spent my career helping kids so I decided to give something back to the country that I will be running through. Comrades marathon is a 90 km( 55 miles) run through South Africa that must be completed in 12 hours. This charity helps children in South Africa who have been abused or neglected. 100% of your donation will go to this charity. 0% goes to paying for my race which is already paid for. Thank you for your support and for supporting the children of South Africa.
