larkim Jun 2018 3:08pm, 20 Jun 2018 5,085 posts	Quote Pin larkim Meant to ask at the time, why do runners like Steve run for "Nedbank" as their club when running Comrades? Do overseas athletes need to register with a SA club to be able to run, or is there some other sponsorship etc arrangements which makes things work better.

Overseas runners don't need to register with a local club, though.

I don't know if anyone is running it, but I've added the 2024 edition of the race to our listings: fetcheveryone.com/races/comrades-marathon-9375098 - if you're running it, you can add it to your race list.
