About Runners of Hope
Our History.
Runners of Hope began in 2014 with a small group of Christians running before church. By 2015, the dream of running the Comrades Marathon took shape. The journey continued with growing numbers, milestones, and consistent training. In 2018, we were officially registered with CGA, and by 2019, 40 runners qualified for Comrades, with 32 completing the race. We now run not only for medals but to be a light in athletics.
