The concept of being a black woman living in a predominantly black country but choosing a white sperm donor so you can have a mixed race child. Can’t tell if it’s mental illness, colorism, low racial self esteem or all 3.

🏃♂️ START TIMES, START GROUPS & CUT-OFFS ANNOUNCED FOR THE 99TH COMRADES MARATHON The Comrades Marathon Association is introducing exciting operational enhancements for the 2026 Up Run to make your journey from Durban to Pietermaritzburg safer, smoother and an even better runner experience. 🕒 Earlier Three-Group Start To maximise daylight running conditions and improve safety, the 2026 race will feature an earlier staggered start: Group 1: 05h00 Group 2: 05h15 Group 3: 05h30 👟 Why Three Start Groups? Following the success of the staggered start in 2025, the CMA is expanding to three controlled starts in 2026 to improve runner flow and safety across the route. ✅ Reduced congestion at the start ✅ Better flow through narrow route sections ✅ Improved access for medical and emergency teams ✅ Faster service at refreshment stations ✅ More open road running and improved pacing opportunities ✅ More runners reaching the final stages of the race in daylight ⏱️ Every runner still receives a full 12 hours to complete The Ultimate Human Race! All runners will continue to receive the full 12 hours to complete the race, with each group’s official race time commencing at the firing of the start gun for that specific group. Starting in an earlier group will not provide additional time to complete the race. All finishing times will be verified post-finish, with medal eligibility confirmed at the medal tent. 🚦 Enhanced Cut-off System A clearer and more supportive way to monitor your pacing and stay on track throughout the race, please refer to the official cut-off table. As runners approach a cut-off point, they will be provided with a simple colour-based pacing guidance warning system: 🟢 Green Zone – GO You’re comfortably on pace. Keep moving! 🟡 Amber Zone – WARNING Time to maintain or increase your pace to stay on track. 🔴 Red Zone – CUT-OFF Sorry you're out of time and reached the cut-off. Runners will be required to board the official rescue buses so that roads can safely reopen. ❤️ Tradition Meets Innovation While the race continues to evolve operationally, the spirit and traditions of Comrades Marathon remain. Runners will still experience the emotion and excitement of the National Anthem, Shosholoza, Chariots of Fire and Max Trimborn’s iconic cock-crow before heading for the hills. Group 1 runners will experience the full traditional start programme, while Groups 2 and 3 will enjoy a shortened yet equally inspirational version ahead of their respective starts. 👉 Read the full press release:comrades.com/blog/posts/344 Prepare smartly, pace yourself wisely and get ready to be part of history in the 50th Up Run on 14 June 2026! 🥇 #ComradesMarathon #Comrades2026 #TheUltimateHumanRace #UpRun2026 #SkaFelaMoya
