Comrade's champion Gerda Steyn roped in to help Cape Town marathon
CAPE TOWN - When South Africans talk about marathon running, one name almost always comes up. Gerda Steyn, the golden lady of South African distance running. Now she's been brought in to help participants prepare for and complete the Cape Town Marathon. The race has its sights set on something big, becoming a World Marathon Major. But to get there, it's got to tick off a tough list of requirements. One of the biggest? Getting at least 15,000 runners across that finish line. But this race is about more than just the sport. It's about unity, pride, and putting Cape Town and Africa on the global stage. For Gerda Steyn, this race is about more than just kilometres and finishing times. She's convinced the Cape Town Marathon is the perfect way to showcase South Africa in all its beauty, energy, and spirit. Mark your calendars, the Cape Town Marathon is set for the 19th of October. And it's going to be big, the entire field of 24-thousand entries is officially sold out. By: Justin Ford

Kaizer Chiefs transfer news: Ighodaro, Phiri, Zajmovic, new striker
Kaizer Chiefs have signed six players so far this transfer window but the club have indicated that more signings would be made before the window closes. The team will play their first official match of the season against Stellenbosch on Sunday at the Cape Town Stadium. Nasreddine Nabi will hope to get his side to a winning start after a disappointing 2024/25 campaign. Amakhosi are linked with 24-year-old striker Etiosa Ighodaro, who is under contract with rivals Mamelodi Sundowns. 'That player [Ighodaro] belongs to another team with administrative issues, but he or another striker that we listed on our transfer list will be welcomed,' Nabi said when questioned by FARPost . 'For now, we will wait to hear from our administration if he or another striker will join. I saw the player you are asking about last season was playing for AmaZulu, and I believe he's a good player, but he's a player that doesn't belong to our club, and we can't say much about it.' Another player Kaizer Chiefs can sign is former Bafana Bafana midfielder Lebogang Phiri. He recently confirmed to Sunday World that he and his camp held talks with Amakhosi. 'Yes, Kaizer Chiefs did contact me and my representatives. We had small talks with Amakhosi, but I think since they were going to prepare for their pre-season in the Netherlands, the talks stalled a bit,' Phiri told Sunday World. 'But hopefully in the upcoming days or weeks, our talks will resume, and we will come up with something. 'Should something work out, I will be here, but if not, I will go elsewhere and keep pushing.' Ex-TS Galaxy star Dzenan Zajmovic set to record straight on rumours linking him to Chiefs. 'Two clubs made contact, but I was not happy with the proposals about a month ago,' Zajmovic told 'It was not even one of the big three clubs in South Africa. Okay with regards to Kaizer Chiefs, they never contacted me. I have seen people writing a lot of nonsense that I'm negotiating with them but nothing like that has happened. 'All the things on the internet about me and Chiefs are not true because they have never contacted me. What I know is that I have shown myself in a good way but maybe it is not good enough for some clubs,' he said. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 0211.
