Just outside Drummond on the Durban side is the Comrades Wall of Honour.  This is a long wall covered with green and yellow Comrades plaques containing the names and race numbers of numerous Comrades runners.  The first section of the wall contains the plaques of former Comrades winners.  For the rest, the plaques are those of runners who have paid for the privilege of having their name on this wall to commemorate their race achievements.  Runners who have earned their permanent number have a green plaque while those who have run less than 10, have a yellow plaque.

When driving the route, this is always a good place to stop and stretch your legs and take some time out to look at the various plaques on the wall.  This is something that I have done every year that I have run Comrades.  I did have the opportunity to purchase a plaque after my first run, I made the decision that I would wait until I had earned my permanent number before I applied for one.  In the meanwhile I stopped at the wall every year while driving the route, looking forward to the year that I would be able to look for my own plaque on the wall.
