Wave of Records at Two Oceans
The winter weather may have come late to the Cape in recent years, but they don’t call it the Cape of Storms for nothing! Thus torrential rain and strong winds accompanied the runners through much of the 43rd Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon and 15th Half Marathon on Easter weekend, and the finish at the UCT rugby fields became muddier and more slippery with each passing runner. However, the weather could not put a dampener on a record-breaking, record-equalling race. – BY SEAN FALCONER
