Thanks for posting this, it was the only Comrades I ran - but what a day :) Martin

I can't complain: it was enough just to watch all of that excitement and drama again.

Were you there?

or have you run Comrades?

[warrenrab]

Both: I was there (watching) in 1985, and have completed the event 9 times between 1992 and 2007, with a sub 7:30 best time.

I now live in Australia

Hoping to return one day for no 10, next year if possible.

One error here: The "fella with a hat" who missed 11 hour cut off didn't miss his silver medal. A Silver is sub 7:30. This chap missed a bronze medal.

So what did you expect from Cricketers commenting on the greatest road race in the world.
