  walking on the Ultra What would you choose? Would you remain without food for 48 hours (you are allowed coffee and tea with milk, but no sugar and electrolytes) or would you run or walk 88km within 12 hours? Running for 12 hours? I managed to complete my ten Comrades Ultra Maraton on Sunday 11 June 2023. It seems easy if you type it in one line, but it was not easy. I started off at a fair pace and kept up with the pre race plan. I took a huge shake with much extra carbohydrates in the mixture shortly before the race started.

I ran with a waterbottle in my hand and the H30 sachets in my running vest. I maintained a good pace throughout and was extremely pleased to run below th...
