Elite race moment 😄🏃🏾‍♂️
A NedBank Running Club runner tried to lead the elite pack like it was his day… a few meters later, reality said “not today” and the real pacers took over 😂

Lesson: even if you’re not sure, sometimes just go for it, you might last longer than you think 😄

The presence of Eliud Kipchoge in major marathon events like the Cape Town Marathon continues to show what he represents in the sport, pushing human limits and growing long-distance running across the world.

Kipchoge’s career is defined by discipline, consistency, and the belief that “no human is limited.” As a former world record holder and Olympic marathon champion, he has set standards that goes beyond competition, inspiring a global running culture built on hard work and mental strength.

From his historic sub-2-hour marathon attempt in Vienna under controlled conditions, to consistently competing at the highest level, Kipchoge has proven that his impact goes beyond medals and times.

His influence in major international and African marathon events continues to raise the profile of the sport, attracting global attention and encouraging more participation from elite and recreational runners.

As marathon running continues to grow, events in Africa such as Cape Town are expected to see increased international participation, stronger competition, and greater global recognition in the coming years.

Something elite is in motion… 🏃💪

Not everything is announced at once. Some things are built in silence before they are revealed in performance.

Within Kabulonga Fitness Squad, a select group of athletes has entered a new phase of structured, high-performance development, built on discipline, precision, and relentless standards.

This is not ordinary training.

This is Project Sub-59🏁

The work has begun. The results will speak.

RUNNER’S PROFILE | RISING STAR 🇿🇲

Another elite lady is steadily rising through the ranks of Zambian athletics, meet Blessings Banda of the Zambia Air Force Athletics Club. 👏🏾

Slowly but surely, Blessings is pushing her way to the top. The hard work is beginning to show, and her consistency is proving that she is one of the athletes to watch for the future of Zambian athletics.

Her recent performances continue to show growth and determination:
🏅Top 5 finish at the ZAF Marathon in Ndola
🏅Top 5 finish at the HR Marathon in the 21KM category
🥈2nd position today at the IG’s Marathon in the 10KM category

This level of consistency does not happen by chance, it comes through discipline, sacrifice, and determination. If she continues on this path, there is every reason to believe that Blessings is on course to become one of Zambia’s next national champions.

We will continue telling the stories of runners because we believe Zambia has the talent to compete at the highest level and we are just getting started. 🇿🇲💪🏾

Congratulations, Blessings Banda, on your outstanding progress. The future looks bright! 🌟

Another impressive Top 10 finish for our very own, Alick Mashowo at today’s IG’s Marathon. 👏🏾🏃🏾‍♂️

This marks a strong and promising start to his season as he continues his comeback journey. Following a commendable performance at the HR Marathon, where he secured 4th position among security runners, Alick has once again demonstrated resilience and consistency with another strong result today.

At Kabulonga Fitness Squad, we believe this is only the beginning. We are intentionally building something meaningful around Alick’s journey, and in time, the vision will become clear. We strongly believe he is an athlete with national potential and a story worth supporting. 🇿🇲

Before today’s race, Alick shared these words:

“Being confident is what keeps me going. I never lose faith, and if I keep believing, it will happen.”

As a team, we remain committed to supporting his growth and development. Alick is currently open to sponsorship opportunities for upcoming marathons, and we welcome individuals and organizations willing to support local athletic talent.

Congratulations on another strong performance, Alick - the journey continues. 💪🏾🏅

Are We Normalizing Running Injured?

Lately, it has almost become a trend to see runners showing up at marathons with knee bandages, ankle straps, and injuries they clearly haven’t fully recovered from. Honestly, we need to talk about it.

Why are we normalizing running injured? Why risk your long-term health over a medal, a finish line picture, or a PB that can honestly wait?

What many runners fail to understand is that when you continue running on an injured knee, even with a bandage, your body starts adapting and compensating. Without realizing it, you begin changing your running form to protect the pain. Over time, that changes everything, your posture, stride, balance, pace, and even how your muscles and joints function together. What feels like “just discomfort” today can easily become a serious injury tomorrow, one that sidelines you for months or, worse, ends your running journey completely.

Taking a few weeks off to heal does not make you weak. Missing one race, one PB attempt, or one medal does not define you. In fact, it makes you wiser. It shows discipline. It makes you a true champion because you understand the value of this sport and respect your body enough to protect it.

And let’s ask another honest question?🤔 Why are some runners doing marathons every single weekend when they are not even doing it professionally or for money? Recovery matters. Your body needs time to rebuild, repair, and come back stronger. Even elite athletes, people who actually run for money, take recovery seriously. They rest, recover, rehab, and train smart because they understand that longevity matters more than one race.

Running is not just about today. It’s about still being able to run years from now.

Heal first. Recover properly. The marathon will still be there. That PB can wait. Your health cannot.

Back in school, running felt like punishment… now we pay & wake up at 04:00 to suffer voluntarily😭😂

Have you ever felt like an elite at 1–2km, then started questioning your life choices at 17km? 😭😂
