On Sunday, 7 July 2024, the streets of Durban will be painted red as thousands of runners come together for the 7th annual Absa RUN YOUR CITY DURBAN 10K, one of the city’s most iconic 10km road races.
Lining up on a course that produced the SA All-Comers Record of 27:16 set by Uganda’s Joshua Cheptegei in 2018, Elroy Gelant knows that given his recent mercurial form, all eyes will be on him.
“I understand the expectations at the Absa RUN YOUR CITY DURBAN 10K and I am prepared for the challenge,” confirms Gelant.
The Boxer Athletics Club top runner has been in the shape of his life in 2024 setting personal bests over the marathon (2:08:56) and 10km (27:54), while claiming a silver medal in the 5000m at the ASA Senior Track and Field Championships.
