Rustenburg, located in the North West Province of South Africa, is called the Platinum City due to its platinum mining industry.

This town has become home to champions of the ultimate test of human endurance, the Comrades Marathon.

In the simplicity of putting one foot in front of another, for 2019 Comrades Marathon Champion, Edward Mothibi, running is not just a hobby or profession, it’s a way of life.

It is his declaration of strength, his defiance against adversity, and his unwavering pursuit of a brighter tomorrow.
