At just 20 years old, Zander McNeil took on the ultimate challenge - the 90km Comrades Marathon - and finished strong in 11:56:44!

Stacey and J Sbu chat to the youngest participant of Comrades 2025 about his experience, the mental game behind the run and what pushed him to take on such a gruelling race at such a young age.

Zander reflects on his motivation, the example set by his dad and how challenges shape growth.

"Difficulty is just a measure of the bottom… and the extent you're willing to push it," Zander says.
