The Comrades Marathon is the world's largest and oldest ultramarathon and is thought by many to be the hardest. Founded in 1921, the 89K, or 55-mile, road race spans the length between Durban, a coastal town on the eastern part of South Africa, and Pietermaritzburg, an inland town nestled into hills. Among those lining up to take on the challenge at this year's race on June 11 was American Sika Henry, a professional triathlete in her late 30s from Newport News, Virginia, who only decided to continue her recent foray into ultrarunning when an opportunity to run Comrades with the Durban-based Phantane Athletics Club arose.
