Wally Hayward's exceptional running career spanned six decades,and though he represented South Africa at the Olympic Gamesand set numerous ultra-distance world records, he is bestremembered for his remarkable achievements in the ComradesMarathon. His first attempt at the fabled Durban to Pietermaritzburgepic came in 1930, and was a text book example of how not to runan ultra-marathon. He wore cheap canvas takkies stuffed with pagesfrom a telephone directory, only drank every 30km or so, and sawa substantial first half lead dwindle away to just 37 seconds by thetime he crossed the line in first place in 7:27:26.

Exhausted by his efforts, Hayward shunned the race for two decades concentrating instead on shorter distances, and seeing action in North Africa during the second World War. In 1950, two decades after his first Comrades appearance, Hayward returned and again strode to victory. The following year he made it three wins in three appearances, and sliced a massive eight minutes off the record. After finishing tenth in the marathon at the 1952 Helsinki Olympic Games, Hayward returned to secure his fourth Comrades title in 1953, becoming the first athlete to break six hours as he won the 'down' race in 5:52:30.

That same year saw Hayward embark on an ultra-marathon recordbreaking blitz in the United Kingdom. In September, he won the prestigious London-to-Brighton race in record time, establishing a  world record for 50 miles along the way. The following month, he broke the world record for 100 miles by more than an hour. In 1954, aged 45, Hayward became the oldest Comrades Marathon winner in history, claiming his fifth title in a new 'up' record of 6:12:15. This achievement was only bettered half a century later, when Vladimir Kotov won in 2004 at the age of 46.

In the same year, however, the South African Athletics and Cycling Association declared Hayward a professional for accepting a trifling amount of expense money when traveling in Britain. He was summarily banned for twenty years. In 1988, at the age of 79, Hayward returned to the scene of his greatest triumphs, and ran one of the most incredible races in the long, distinguished history of the Comrades. A full 34 years after his last appearance, he finished in a remarkable 9:44:15, a time good enough to beat half the field. He returned the following year for a final, rousing swansong at the age of 80, completing the race in 10:58:03 in front of a rapturous crowd to become the oldest finisher in Comrades history.

A carpenter and draughtsman for the Johannesburg Municipality most of his working life, Hayward had a road race named in his honour. The inaugural Wally Hayward Marathon was run in 1977 and remains an integral part of the Gauteng running calendar.

He died in April 2006 at the age of 97.

The LIFEGAIN WALLY HAYWARD MARATHON will be supporting 6 charities in 2012.

• 3 for Child Welfare (Child Welfare, Tshwane, Amadea Safe Houses and Reddingsdaad Broodjieprojek),

• 2 for Cancer (CANSA & PINK  DRIVE )

• 1 for Animals (Tshwane SPCA).

   

FAMILY DAY

The charities will be making a special effort to ensure that the 2012 LIFEGAIN Wally Hayward Marathon will be an event that the whole family can enjoy - with a 1KM race for the Kiddies, a supervised Kiddies Entertainment area where you will be able to safely leave your kiddies while you participate in one of the events, and also a Family Entertainment area with fun for the whole family.

SUPERVISED CHILDREN'S ENTERTAINMENT AREA

Child Welfare, Tshwane will be organising a supervised Children's entertainment area,  for children from 3 years to 10 years of age, with Clowns, including Gerard and RD the clowns with a special kiddies comedy Magic show, Balloon sculptures, Face Painting , stilt walkers, puppet shows  and Jumping Castles.  

Parents will just need to purchase a plastic hospital identity bracelet for each child for only R 26  for the entertainment for your kiddies  between    05h30 and 11h30  on the morning  of 1 May 2012.

You can pay for this  together with your race entry - or you can even only pay for the Kiddies entertainment, without having to enter any of the races.  

FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT AREA

There will also be an adjacent entertainment area for older children, teens and parents - including a singer, climbing wall and rides not suitable for young kiddies.  

DONATIONS

Donations can be made to the charities - either individually or collectively, to be shared equally amongst all 6 charities, - together with your on-line race entry - or you can even make a donation without entering any event.
