Nkhetheni Masupa in action during the Om die dam Ultramarathon at the Hartbees­poort Dam on Saturday (11/06). Om die Dam is the largest inland ultramarathon in South Africa, offering a 50 km route. The event has a reputation for its scenic route, the high standard of organisation and the timing in the build-up to this year’s Comrades Marathon, to be held on Sunday, 28 August. Most members of the Welkom Runners Club partici­pated this year, com­peting with local and inter­national athletes. Among those present were Welkom’s own Team Vitality Twins (TVT), Abe Nkomo and Masupa, who obtained silver medals for their sterling performance. Photo: Supplied
