Two-time Comrades marathon champion Tete Dijana says his excited at the opportunity to rectify what happened in last years up run in this year's race on Sunday.
Dijana was speaking during the media briefing ahead of the 98th staging of the worlds oldest ultra-marathon on Thursday.
Sunday's down run starts at Pietermaritzburg City Hall and ends at the People's Park outside Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
Dijana said after the last years race was marred by his cramping that saw him walking to the end, he had watched videos shared on social media.
When I was watching some of the videos, I heard one of the coaches telling their athletes, 'Tete is walking'. This year I am not here to walk, he said.
