Double amputee to run Comrades

Uncategorized

RWrun8So you thought 76 year old Clive Crawley was inspiring, take a read of this. One can only look up to Richard Whitehead, as he will be the first double amputee to attempt Comrades, and will make history if he finishes it.

I remember when he ran the 56km Two Oceans here, and I was in awe of that achievement, but this is simply outstanding. Aiming for under 10 hours is extremely ambitious as well, I think it will be an achievement to simply finish.

So that’s one more to keep an eye out for on Sunday morning.
