The first Africans to compete in the Olympic Games were two South Africans, Jan Mashiane and Len Taunyane, who competed in the Marathon at the 1904 St. Louis Olympics. Their participation in the infamous 1904 St. Louis Olympic Marathon is one of the most fascinating and bizarre chapters in sports history. Neither man traveled to the United States as an official Olympic athlete. They were in Missouri as part of the Boer War Spectacle at the World's Fair, which ran concurrently with the Games. They had previously served as dispatch runners during the Anglo-Boer War. They decided to enter the marathon on a whim just before the race began. Because officials struggled with their surnames, they were listed on the program as "LenTau" and "Yamasani". Taunyane was actually on pace for a much higher finish but was chased nearly a mile off-course by a pack of aggressive, wild dogs. Despite the canine detour and brutal conditions that caused 18 out of 32 runners to drop out, both South Africans finished the race. Taunyane finished 9th and Mashiane finished 12th.

SAPS TAKES DEPARTMENTAL ACTION AGAINST ALLEGED CORRUPT POLICE OFFICIAL
The South African Police Service (SAPS) management in Gauteng has noted a video circulating on social media platforms, particularly Facebook, depicting a police official in full uniform allegedly returning money to a member of the public following an alleged bribery incident.
The police officer featured in the video has been identified, and immediate disciplinary processes have been instituted.
A departmental investigation has also been launched to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident.
SAPS maintains a zero-tolerance approach to corruption.
The acceptance, solicitation or facilitation of a bribe constitutes a criminal offence and a serious violation of the SAPS Code of Conduct.
The Gauteng Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Tommy Mthombeni, has strongly condemned the alleged conduct.
“The South African Police Service will not tolerate corruption in any form. Members who abuse their authority, compromise their integrity, or betray the trust placed in them by the public will be dealt with decisively. We are committed to ensuring that every allegation of corruption is thoroughly investigated and that appropriate disciplinary and criminal action is taken where warranted. Our communities deserve professional, ethical and accountable policing, and we remain steadfast in protecting the integrity of the organisation," said Lieutenant General Mthombeni.
All SAPS members are expected to conduct themselves with integrity and professionalism, in compliance with the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, the SAPS Code of Conduct, and all applicable legislative and policy frameworks.
Members of the public are urged not to offer bribes and to report any allegations of corruption or extortion involving SAPS members through the following channels:
