His name is Oleg Kharitonov. He is from Russia. Being the Comrades winner in 2006 and many-many times finisher here he must definitely know the rules. Respect!
the commentary adds to the drama. 1:01" OUT OF THE TUNNEL, OUT OF THE SHADOW AND INTO THE LIGHT, THE CROWD ROAR AS THEY WELCOME HER INTO MOSES MABHIDA STADIUM..." powerful tone of voice and well put together words to create audio atmosphere
Заслуженное 4 место среди женщин. Отставание от лидера 24 минуты. А ведь реально можно было бы попасть в призы, но русских в последний момент допустили. Печаль.
Unsung hero, the guy who stopped the other runner from helping her up, to avoid disqualification.

Respect!
The only way to be disqualified is if he had helped her cross the finish. Up until then she could have even been carried.

Amazing to watch. Very proud of her.
these people are special to run a marathon regardless of the result it is truly special
This a 90km ultra marathon not just the standard 42.2km.
That is inspirational never give up
Congratulations...great..lovely...what a job you did there...so much preparations and sacrifice pay off
Im in a public transport as im watching this im crying feeling so emotional tiers of joy though wll done #J.C 🌈
She kept smiling after that gruelling run? Amazing 🤩
умница, смогла, с улыбкой!!
If this is not perseverance what is!
I actually cried
In case you didn't know, this is 89 km, not 42 km.
It's actually 90km. In reality, many runners don't take the optimal racing line and end up doing close to 91km
Very brave
Really - they ran a race - I know ordinary people far braver
And the Oscar goes to .........
Machine
Wow I'm so proud of you Genna
Didn’t the person in the tunnel help her up ?
Yes, absolute legend.
I think it is when they help her crossing the line?! 🤷♀️
good acting!
Всë херня. Дайте нам Морозову!
"wonderful scenes here" Is this commentator some sort of sadist, who loves seeing people suffering and not in control of their bodies?
It's what the comrades is all about
"looming out of darkness, bringing her home is the crowd." He captured the soul of the last short but gruesome distance of comrades marathon.
This is the Comrades ultra marathon, you clearly don't understand what is going on here.
Its more about celebrating perseverance in adversity. It is a wonderful scene because at her weakest most lowest point her mind and spirit triumphs

The power of addiction/dopamin....
