It's the part where Craig apologized for "...giving her heart attacks..." that gets me the most😂😂. One beautiful story of Comrades and Love. I like it.

Having had 3 previous cracks at this for 3 DNFs and having missed this year battling injuries and not getting the qualifier in, watching this is making me super determined to be back for 2023. Hope you guys can make it from NZ, there's about 20 or so that go from across the ditch and usually 100+ from Australia that make the trip so you'll have company if you go for 2023.

There comes a time in the race when your legs do not belong to your body anymore. The mind just tries to think of something else except running. Gee, it takes it out of you, I know I have done it four times up and down. But the next year comes and you are back for the punishment again. What is it with us humans, we never learn, do we? DEEP HEAT rub, it helps. Yes, that does happen, you must not sit down, muscles can not cool off. Well done for your endurance, Craig. Running into the sunrise is so beautiful.

@@BeingBedingfield Hi you guys from Thailand, it is so inspiring to see hubby do what he did, it takes much courage and guts, yes those were the days for me, and like you, I enjoyed every minute of it. It only starts to punish you the next day when everything is stiff and sore. But after a week you are ready for the next one. Ran a lot on the beach which help immensely before the race. The loose sand does its thing. Anyway, love from Thailand, let the good be your light.

Hi Craig and Chantz. Thanks for the Video! I’ll be attempting my first Comrades this year. I qualified using Soweto Marathon last year- 3:57:00. It was a hilly run. Trying to get a better seeding at Edenvale marathon next month. How much milage did you clock up for the 6 months leading up to Comrades? So from March to Raceday in your case. I average around 90-100km per week on average. Would be nice to hear from you!
