This is a fairly detailed description of the Down run in the Comrades Marathon.
It’s 10 minutes long and you get tired just by looking at it!
What it doesn’t highlight is just how steep and long the hills are, and the “bone jarring pain” one can expect to encounter.
Speaking to Comrades runners, the Down run is all about Pain management.
Just watching this video gives me goosebumps, and I hope it inspires you to gives the World’s greatest Ultramarathon a go one day!
