5 1/1 It’s hard to believe, but the race that once felt a lifetime away is now behind me. Comrades: 2025: completed it, mate. The race happened and I survived it - thanks, in no small part, to someone very special. Getting there was its own ultra.

After months of looming like a distant mountain on the horizon, Comrades is now just days away - and suddenly I’m staring down the start line of the hardest race of my life. Four weeks ago, it still felt like something future me had to deal with. But now it’s here - and the only thing louder than the taper nerves is the thought: Can I really do this? I find myself caught in a constant tug-of-war between excitement and anxiety. I keep repeating the same internal monologue: You’ve done the training.

Since getting into running, I’ve developed something of a love affair with trainers. I love everything about them - the look, the foams, the drops, the ridiculous names, the colourways. I follow what each brand is doing, get excited about updates to models I’ve never even worn, and could happily fall into a YouTube rabbit hole of shoe reviews if left unattended for more than five minutes. Unfortunately, my enthusiasm doesn’t always align with what actually works for me.

The shift is part of a new partnership with ticketing provider SeatGeek and means fans will be required to store their match and season tickets on their smartphones via Apple or Google Wallets. Entry to home fixtures will then be via the existing contactless readers at turnstiles and entry points. The club says the move will support its sustainability objectives by reducing the need for plastic cards and paper tickets, while also improving the matchday experience.
