Personal Message:

Nestled in the heart of South Africa’s sweeping landscapes, the annual Comrades Ultra Marathon stood as a testament to endurance, resilience, and above all, the spirit of unity for a cause far greater than any individual. It was not just a race; it was a pilgrimage for those whose hearts beat fiercely for the conservation of South Africa's wild beauty. Among the throng of runners, each step harmonized with the soul-stirring call of nature, was a dedicated team—running not just for glory, but for the South African Parks Honorary Rangers.
