The first SA couple to run seven marathons on seven continents.
On 25 November 2016,
Steve and Eleanor Pienaar not only finished the Antarctic Marathon; they became the first South African couple to complete a marathon on all seven continents. Eleanor Pienaar shares her fond memories of travelling and running for 11 years.
Steve and I had both run marathons in South Africa. Steve had achieved his Comrades green number, and I my back-to-back medal. But we needed a new challenge. We love to travel and we love to run, so we decided to combine our two passions by touring the international races.
First stop: the London Marathon. My family live in the UK, and we ran it in celebration of my dad’s 60th birthday – he himself has finished 13 Comrades.
