The Boxer AC athlete Glenrose Xaba has confirmed her entry into the 2019 FNB Cape Town 12 ONERUN on Sunday, 19 May 2019.
Xaba had a busy 2018 and needed to rest at the end of the season. She took some time off and focused on building some mileage in her legs. Indicative of just how she has been able to build her fitness was her impressive 32km training run in early February where she cruised to a 2:12.46 time.
“I still won’t race beyond 15km. But the 32km was a good effort for me to get stronger.”
2019 will be another long year and I needed the mileage in my legs,” said Xaba. “After my 5th place in Cape Town last year at the FNB Cape Town 12 ONERUN, I want to do better this year. I know that we will again have some really good competition in the race, Stillwater Sports is always able to bring in some top athletes, so this will be a race that I really want to do well in.”
