    I am a big rugby fan, and I was very happy about winning the 1995 rugby world cup. But Josia Thugwane's victory in the 1996 Olympic marathon was bigger for me personally. I had tears in my eyes when this brave athlete beat the field to take gold. Well done, we love you Josia!

    I saw him in 2015 at the Cape Town marathon. He said he is busy developing young athletes in his community. Great man and true South African.

    Kenya's Erick Wainaina does not get the credit he deserves. He won bronze in the 1996 Olympics and silver in the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Congratulations Erick. Watching from Nairobi, Kenya.

    One of the best marathon I have seen! The change of gear those three athletes made the last miles very exciting to watch. And the history of the South African athlete is inspirational!

    I was eleven years old and staying with my parents in the village I remember watching a black and white tv 📺...With power from a battery 🔋...I watched this marathon 🏃 with my mom an my little brother my dada also worked at the mines just like Josia ...when I saw he opened that gap and he was about to finish I was so exited...Non much I knew about apartheid or segregation then...I learnt it when I was about 13 and 15 and yes ...This morning before I go to run 🏃 I decided to check this hero out......I like what the producer of this piece says .....We can now have black and white champions....We thank the government of Mandela and Sobukwe who fought for us to be free....Let’s live in a non racial non sexist and free economy to all South Africans who live in South Africa 🇿🇦 because we all belong to it ❤️❤️❤️❤️🏃🏃🏃🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

    Thanks Josia for putting this country on the map. One thing about South Africans, we love winners and at times we forget about socioeconomic challenges and racial divide when we are in sport fields
