Image: © BOOGS Photography / Andrew Mc Fadden This passed weekend, I had the amazing opportunity to be a photographer for Racefood at the 94th running of the Comrades Marathon. What an amazing brand and what an amazing race to be associated with. Before I start, I would just like to congratulate every single runner that took part, you all inspired myself and many others. A special congratulations to Gerda Steyn (RSA); who won and smashed the woman up run record, as well as Edward Mothibi (RSA); who took the honours in the men's event. A bit like the athletes of the Comrades, our day started before the sun came up. It was great to see such great team, as everyone played their part in order to get everything ready before the first runners arrived. The thick mist compromised visibility and light, making setting up that little bit more of a test(Myself included). with all the challenges, everything was sorted and ready to go before any runners had arrived. I had a great time, capturing the emotions of the day. I would like to give a special thank you to my amazingly talented Girlfriend(assistant); Rachel. who assisted me thought the entire day!
