maybe the best route description I have ever seen.. I'm running this year, and seeing your video I felt like I was there already. It's a big event.. good luck to all runners, we will meet there.. Shosholoza!
Thank you for the kind words. Hope the knowledge of the route will help you to reach your Comrades goals! All the best with your run. Nakanjani!
3 days and counting down....
Every chance I get I come to this video... so to mental grasp the road and set milestones!
THANKS ALOT :)
What beautiful route description. Also just a reminder to eat the elephant one bite at a time
Best route description I’ve seen so far. I’m a novice and full of anxiety about this beast
All the best with your race! Hope you have great success. The Comrades Marathon is an amazing race.
Nice detailed breakdown route analysis. I ran my first comrades in 2019 uprun and after these years I completely forgot what some of the monsters look like into the uprun. Thank you Andre 👌🏾
Same here, but I remember that it was not as bad as the 2 downruns I did thereafter 😢
The best description I have ever seen, thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you so much - the best description delivered perfectly
Thank you so much Andre for this thorough and clear review. Best regards from Mozambique.
Thank you for this video! I have shared with my friends, all first time on the Up Run!
All the best with your first Up Comrades Marathon. I think many of the runners who has done a previous Up will be very rusted with the route... The last UP was in 2019.
Very insightful, thanks
Glad you enjoyed the Comrades route description.
Enjoyed it but it made me scared a bit. Thank you.
I think we should be scared (a bit).
Lekker man Kerkmuis! Ek sien daar is al 'n bietjie van 'n following hier aan die gebeur. Goeie werk!
Thank you! Over the years the Comrades has been very kind to me. And now it is amazing to give something back to the Comrades community. Glad the people are enjoying my videos.
Good description of the route Andre thanks
Thank you Mandla. Have a happy race!
enjoyed this route description. Thank you
Thanks Andre! Love the scary humor😂
Great route description, enjoying your videos. Thanks!
nice one champ
Thank you for an awesome video. If OK I'd like to use this to present to our club Comrades send off
Hi. You are welcome to use it. Gald it helps.
Thanks for sharing your inputs ❤
Thanks, was very insightful.
11:20 Great video Andre. 💪🏻 Just a note where you've indicated Harrison flats isn't correct. According to that section it begins just over that hill by the Caltex (7.5km on your map) then eventually down to Cato Ridge. Awesome vid nonetheless 😎
Hi. Thank you for that. The exact start of Harrison Flats is tricky! I used Google Street View to search for a "Welcome to Harrison Flats" sign but could not find it! If you look at Google Maps then the "Harrison" area starts just after Inchanga Village, but it looks like we enter, then exit, then enter Harrison area again. The "Harrison Flats" might not be the same as "Harrison Area"? See this link to Google Maps: www.google.co.za/maps/place/Harrison,+Cato+Ridge,+3680/@-29.7263182,30.6150632,14.5z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x1ef6ee9dd2dbd929:0x1d75ce262495b03e!8m2!3d-29.7165028!4d30.6257423!16s%2Fg%2F1tg_6l5b?hl=en&entry=ttu
Thank you @stevendecanha8610. Thank you for the correction. Not easy to spot the exact boundaries of Harrison Flats. I could not see signs like "Welcome to Harrison Flats" and "You are now leaving Harrison Flats". But, if I go to Google Maps and search for "Cato Ridge Harrison", then I get the boundaries of the Harrison area. And this area is broader than what you describe. Could be that "Harrison Flats" is a subsection of the bigger "Harrison" area? Please share a link if you have one showing something more official about the boundary. Have a good Comrades!
I found 1 municipal document online that makes reference to an area inside Harrison that they mark as "Harrison Flats". This corresponds with @stevendecanha8610 above.
"Runners will get the fright of their life" 😂
Bro, tell me about it.
What's the nickname for heartbreak hill, asking for a friend 😅
*toot* *beep* *beep* *beep* hill. :-)
André kan nie so lelik praat nie, al wil hy.
Hi Andre... I really love the way you do your content. Can I contact you to discuss how we can invite you for a talk at our club. We are in Pretoria.
Hi Majoro. I have sent you a friend request in Facebook.
@@andremaakal6069 thank you very much
Celebrity in the making!
Last year I finished by grace of the Lord
There’s disabled kids on the route🥹
This is cutting deeper. Best explained route, it sounds doable
