MORE than R6 million was raised through the Comrades Marathon Association's (CMA) Amabeadibeadi Charity Drive, thanks to the runners who participated in Sunday's "down run" to Durban on behalf of the respective charities they represented.

There are six charities the CMA's Amabeadibeadi initiative supports: The Childhood Cancer Foundation South Africa (CHOC), SANParks Honorary Rangers, Community Chest, Rise Against Hunger, Hillcrest AIDS Centre Trust and Childline KwaZulu-Natal.

CHOC Cows manager Jayde McCarthy said: “We did super well with our cows being absolutely amoozing!”

McCarthy said it was motivating to consider that they were running on behalf of children battling cancer.
