For years, Francois and his wife Antoinette have trained side by side, lining up together at everything from local club runs to Two Oceans and the Comrades Marathon.This conversation isn’t about podiums or personal bests. It’s about showing up, week after week. Francois shares how running together has shaped their marriage, how they navigate pace, setbacks and ageing, and why small rituals — even collecting bread tags on runs — have become symbols of purpose and connection.We also hear Antoinette’s voice in her own words, in Afrikaans, offering a heartfelt reflection on what it means to run alongside the same person through life.If you’ve ever struggled with consistency, wondered how to keep moving as the years go by, or believed that the real power of running lies in community and companionship, this episode will stay with you long after the finish line.Get in contact and follow us - Send in your questions, show suggestions and comments (good or bad) to:Facebook https://www.facebook.com/share/17EN4yrAqp/?mibextid=wwXIfrInstagram https://www.instagram.com/motmpod?igsh=MW8yamF4cHBkZWpxZg%3D%3D&utm_source=qremail [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
