Well, finally I was able to download all the clips of me at the various checkpoints along the way at the Comrades Marathon (from the Comrades website). I combined them together into one and included a few snaps of me as well, and voila, I had created my first video! The quality is not great, due to the various format conversions and editing involved, and maybe someday I will sit on this again and try to do a better job. Meanwhile, enjoy my first video, it had to be Comrades!
