The marathon is also helping to market KZN as a tourist destination.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur warm congratulations go to all winners and participants of this year\u2019s marathon. As exciting as it is to win a sporting event of this nature, the most exhilarating experience is to participate and share in its communal spirit. We also applaud all visitors to the province who have come to support these athletes,\u201d said uMgungundlovu district Mayor Cllr Thobekile Maphumulo.<\/p>\n<p>The sixth edition of the Mandela Day Marathon has exceeded all expectations in terms of participants&#8217; numbers and facilities available to athletes and observers. The 2017 marathon has also benefited from a major sponsorship deal with ABSA which has brought in an amount of R6-million over three years.<\/p>\n<p>Results of other races are available at\u00a0<a>www.mandelamarathon.co.za\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a>Caption:\u00a0<\/a>Tekletsion Kassahun Tefera (Ethiopia)\u00a0crossing the finishing line for the 42 KM race.<\/p>\n<p>caption 3049:\u00a0Mamarallo Tjoka (Lesotho) \u00a0crossing the finishing line for the ladies 42 KM race.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>For more information please contact: KZN Cogta spokespersons Lennox Mabaso, 082 884 2403 or Msawakhe Mayisela, 060 966 4220<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Ends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#MandelaMarathon What an awesome weekend.
