Comrades 2027 is officially on the horizon, and the excitement around the 100th running is already massive.

In this episode, Brad is back with Official Comrades Coach Lindsey Parry to look at how you should approach your Comrades 2027 training, whether you ran in 2026, are returning after a long break, or are hoping to take on Comrades for the very first time.

They talk about why you should not rush back into hard training, how to structure the rest of your year, when to think about qualifying, and why consistency now matters more than chasing massive mileage too early.

If Comrades 2027 is on your radar, this is where your journey starts.
