Russian runner Alexandra Morozova has won the women’s 2022 Comrades Marathon.
She said:
“It was amazing. All of my dreams came true today. It was the most difficult marathon of my career. I’m happy to be here to achieve this win. It was my turn this year. “Thank you so much to the citizens of South Africa for the warm greetings. It was so special to run into the stadium and feel this warmth from the crowd. Thank you so much for the opportunity.”
This vindicates the drama and urgent court application on Fri by Mc Naught and Co. on her behalf when a ban on her competing imposed on Thursday by the Comrades Marathon Association was overturned.
Congrats Alexandra, we are thrilled that we could be part of your victory today.
