I stopped during a run the other day to watch a runner approach me and then run around a corner and disappear down the road. He had a lightness and spring to his step that was just phenomenal.<\/li>\n<li>I live in South Africa, a land that has been severely affected by racial mistrust. Although things are getting better, the country still has a long way to go. However, at a running event, differences in skin color drop away completely. All gather for one purpose, to conquer the distance before them, and their own fears: that powerful combination destroys all barriers. I am convinced that the Comrades Marathon is the most special day in our calendar. The 13 to 14 thousand that participate, and the 4 million or so that line those hallowed roads are completely unified. Maybe we should force all our politicians to run a marathon together.<\/li>\n<li>I love running with people.\u00a0 Love the chats and the grunts that take place on hills. I also love running on my own, just me, a bit of music and my thoughts.<\/li>\n<li>I love being outdoors. Johannesburg has some of the best weather in the world for year round running.<\/li>\n<li>I love that runners greet each other. A little wave of the hand from the other side of the road and my heart skips a beat, every time.<\/li>\n<li>Running is the cheapest of the triathlon sports. A pair of running shoes is expensive, but so worth it. Here is how we sell shoes \u00a0<a href=\"\/\/sbrsport.co.za\/2014\/01\/26\/how-to-buy-shoes-from-sbr-sport\/\">How to buy shoes at SBR Sport.<\/a><\/li>\n<li>I have a friend who told me that he would be a cereal killer if he did not run.
