We are 45 days away from the 97th Comrades Marathon, an Up Run starting at the Durban City Hall and finishing at the HollywoodBets Scottsville Racecourse in Pietermaritzburg, covering a distance of 85,91km.
With this in mind, the Comrades Marathon Association (CMA) is urging runners to get on top of their training plan and login to tonight’s (Wednesday, 24 April 2024 at 19h00) fifth Comrades Webinar, tailored for the ultrarunner.
This is part of a series of online training sessions to empower runners for the 97th edition of The Ultimate Human Race, on Sunday, 9 June 2024.
Comrades Coach, Lindsey Parry has encouraged athletes to sign up and be part of the online sessions, saying, "The Comrades webinars provide a great guide towards preparations for race day. Runners will also be able to pose questions to the panel and get tailored advice to improve their running.”
Incorporating a total of eight webinars in the build-up to this year’s 49th Up Run, the webinar schedule includes general information as well as novice-specific and women-specific sessions.
