have inhibited him in many of his past Two Oceans Marathon Trail Runs, he is feeling one hundred percent fit and raring to go.“ My training has been going very well, and I finished third overall in the Maxi Race Cape Winelands 30km last weekend.”
“ I’ ve been doing about 125km to 140km per week and have done a 25km-30km run this past weekend as my last long run before the race.”
Having just turned 50, the Zimbabwe-born athlete will be the overwhelming favourite to win the masters age group category – but age-group success is not his primary aim.“ I’ m aiming to be competitive in the overall race. I’ m feeling strong and ambitious, so I’ ll be aiming for a Top 5 or Top 10 position, or better.
“ This will be my seventh Two Oceans Marathon Trail Run, and I plan to get my permanent number – that will be a good achievement. I’ ll never give up trail running. The people around me give me the energy to keep going.”
