Essential Info Here!
If you have any burning questions about training for the 2016 Comrades Marathon, or want to know about race
day strategy and more, then make sure you get to one of the Comrades Marathon Roadshow Workshops as
you build up to the big day.
T
he Comrades Marathon Association has been organising its popular
Comrades Marathon Roadshows for more than 10 years, not only
going to races to meet with runners, take entries and answer
questions, but also presenting a series of workshops all across the country.
This programme has grown in popularity to such an extent that each year
new running clubs across the country send invites to the the Comrades
Marathon asking to host a workshop, and in 2016, the CMA will once
again undertake a series of 15 workshops across South Africa to prepare
runners for the 91st Comrades Marathon.
The official Comrades Coach, Lindsey Parry as well as other experts in
the field of running and motivation will be on hand to share invaluable
information with runners, including great advice for training, how to
prevent or treat an injury, and how to fuel your training, as well as to
answer questions.
