Comrades Marathon Motivation

With just less than two weeks to go until the 2013 Comrades Marathon, I know I am feeling a bit nervous. For me this is the most difficult time in the build-up to race day. All the hard work has been done; all that is required now is to make sure you arrive well rested in Durban on the 2nd of June. I find it such a difficult time to deal with. I invariably pick up a phantom niggle or sore throat and I avoid people like the plague. I become grouchy and snap at everyone and start doubting my preparation. One thing I do like to do is hear stories that fire me up or watch videos that get me motivated. I put together a little video of my own a few years ago that documented my journey to Comrades, I hope it fires you up!
