Stuff the Pyrenees and Alpe D'Huez. Word's out Jumbo Visma is switching their high altitude training for the Namib desert this summer.

Looks like GrantM is taking a bit of a detour. I hope its only gps issues.

Doing the Midmar Mile for the first time next year with my brother-in-law and both our kids. We don't form part of any swimming team or is part of any swimming community so I have a couple of questions as the organizers don't answer my emails or Whatsapp messages. I see they have seeding events. Is a seeding compulsory or only to give the flyers a faster batch start? Are we allowed to enter the family team race the Saturday as brother-in-laws with our children as a team?

I had so much fun. Very slow swim, kept the tank full for the bike and the run. I had to be rerouted twice on my way to Aus. Swallowed lots of water but didnt get sick. The bike route was flatter than the Freestate, it was fast. I smashed all my pb's. Run was warm and tough, I did better than I thought I would do. Got lots of cramps. Vibe was awesome. Came in at 6:15 I think I'm hooked!

Doing my first Durban 70.3 and have a couple of quick questions: On the race schedule on the event date it has 'transition 1 opens' and 'bike maintenance', is that when you pump your tyres and put you hydration on before the event? Will Durban's water be cold enough for wetsuit legal in October?

Don't let the wind blow you past Jbay...

Quick question: Will we be able to register a support driver at the venue?

Doing the Trans Baviaans Repeat but our group dynamics have changed and we need an extra tent. Tents are all sold out. What would our other options be? Are you allowed to pitch your own tent there? If anyone have a tent to spare we would be glad to take it off your hands....

Emma Pallant crossed the finish line first but was not on the podium, what happened?

Proper Japanese Kamikaze. Someone should tell him the war is over. Him and the captain of the boat at the triathlon.

This is passion! Or maybe a bit too far...

Those okes with the white tri suites.... They should be killed, disqualified or both...

To safe money on bibs.

Because wood is so primative... Not finished yet.
