President Nelson Mandela made a surprise visit to the Comrades Marathon in 1997, and said: ‘One of the greatest challenges in life is to turn our dreams and ideas into reality.’ These words greatly inspired the CMA to base its 2020 Comrades Marathon slogan on this. It is therefore with a great sense of pride and pleasure that we unveil our campaign for next year’s race and give all athletes the green light to dream.
Masakhane Gerome Tshemese participated in the Mitchells Pass 5km run and finished in second place, with an inspirational 16.33 minutes! #Comrades – license to dream
