Shalom Marathon Club runners compete in Secunda

Members of the Shalom Marathon Club recently took part in the Kijima Kosmos 3-in-1 at Lake Umuzi in Secunda.

The 42.2km race also counted as a qualifier for the Comrades Marathon, and most athletes we determined to use this flat and fast course to improve their qualifying times.

Various members ran in the 42km, 21km or 10km, while some athletes competed in all three.

The Shalom runners posted the following times in the 73.3km:

• Thamsanqa Mrubata – 06:24;39
• Thembinkosi Nzuza – 07:03;43
• Molifi Hlangwane – 07:46;46
• Makhosonke Dhladhla – 8:06;26
• Shadrack Nhlapho – 08:16;16
