Road running records
UCT's records for all road and trail running events.
Did you know that in 1973, a university student became the first winner of a Comrades Marathon?
1973 saw the first ever Comrades Marathon win by a university student. Dave Levick of UCT was only able to put in 6 decent weeks of training prior to #TheUltimateHumanRace. He finished with a personal best, taking the title in a new record time of 5:39:09 #ThrowbackThursday pic.twitter.com/M087VDtSoU
