October Athletes of the Month
Give it up for Aneesah and Waheeb!
This dynamic duo not only support each other, as they consistently smash goals, but support the crew too. Their gentle yet consistent championing of other is indeed what makes them so special. They show up, work hard, and smile all the while doing this and this has seen them soar. This month both Aneesa and Waheeb achieved some serious goals, and we couldn’t be prouder. Waheeb ran the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon, cruising in at a comfortable sub 4:30.
As if that wasn’t enough for one month, he then went on to set a blistering PB of 45mins at the ARD 10km. Aneesah also tackled the marathon with a very comfortable sub 5 and set a PB at ARD coming in under 58mins. Way to go you absolute power couple!
Where’s what they have to say:
Aneesah:
1) Any hobbies besides running?
Swimming is something new that I have been enjoying quite, and I like to try new things.
2) Favourite colour?
Red or black.
3) Your running hero?
I don't have a running hero, but I am always in admiration of how amazing there MLH guys are how dedicated and hard they work
Waheeb:
1) When did you join MLH?
I joined a year ago after CT Marathon, after seeing the IG pics of the crew training. I enjoy most the friendly accountability from the crew, checking up on why sessions were missed or how injury recovery is going, encouraging each other and celebrating each other’s successes!
2) Favourite food?
Thai food!
3) Road or trail?
Trail will always be my first love, but the last 2 years road has really challenged me and upped my game.
