August 2012 marked the 50th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's arrest at Tweedie, just outside of Howick, KZN, after which we was incarcerated for more than two decades on Robben Island. He was arrested on 05 August 1962, a year after his landmark speech in Manaye Hall on 26 March 1961. The Mandela Marathon reflects, in a symbolic way, the grueling marathon that Nelson Mandela had to run to lay the foundation for the democratic and free South Africa that he envisaged. This race is a way for us to rekindle our special relationship with the great Nelson Madiba Mandela and say 'thank you' for the life of Nelson Mandela which symbolizes the "Triumph of the Human Spirit" #MandelaMarathon
