    A few of they guys in my running club makes use of Coach Lindsey Perry. But he is also a member of our club so we don't have much of a choice.. :-) I dont have a coach as my running is more of a social of nature. My training consist mainly of doing whatever the guys with programs are doing - pirate running coaching.

    That would depend. If you are a hot 20 something year old blond female be my guestIf you are male GTFO I would love to see an answer from one of our fast runners because at my pace there is no advantage to drafting at all.

    I wish Comrades was this Sunday already. These last three weeks are not fun. I'm feeling amazing at the moment. No pains, no niggles nothing. The hardest thing now is to stick to my taper program, because I'm nervous I just want to go run everyday. Training this year was almost perfect , but sadly I'm not going to make a Bill Rowan this year. I'm just 10s/km off pace so looks like a 9h30m for me. But I'll try to lose another 5 kg after Comrades and run a sub 9 next year.

    I see a few Hubbers also ran the RAC wilds route this morning instead of the Pirates reverse route.

    I have had many coffee machines in the past until I got this Jura Impressa S9 family hand me down. The Jura is built like a tank just soldiers on.

    I did my last long training run yesterday for Comrades I managed to do the RAC 60 in a time of 5h42 a whole hour quicker than last year. The first 50km was pretty easy and went by in no time, the last 10 km fatigue set in and I had to work hard to stay within the 5:50min/km pace I planned for the day. Its pretty sad as my own race predictor indicates a Comrades time of 9h30min based in yesterdays run

    Not this year the SABC didn't have money to broadcast they race this year. And ASA was to useless to try and give the rights to someone who could **** show all round

    Really sad that this is what South Africa has become

    Small world . I know Vicky from the JP group. She has made an amazing come back after her injury Melissa Jansen van Vuuren is also on top form. Its unbelievable how well she and her twin sister has progressed. I actually met her ( or her sister ) during a race last year where I was able to run with her now.......,,,[emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

    956km YTD lost two weeks due to a bit of a cold. But absolutely injury free so that's a massive bonus for a big boned runner. My only concern is that I wount be able to run over Easter weekend due to family commitments. So I'll probably be at 1600km comes start of Comrades
  23. Jaws677
    What ! Damn some pretty serious runners in our midst

    I only saw Stu time on Strava ? How did you do Edgar ?

    So every year due to the single road entrance traffic is always a mess. Which as you know caused a delayed start. I knew this from last year so went very early and slept in my car. Other than that it's a really well organised race. Water points were brilliant, marshalling top notch and a nice vibe I like the fact that you get to see the Elites running at the midway turn around point. Just puts things in perspective, they are super humans. Definitely one of the better organized races Gauteng. But the guys running 5 hours or longer where the groups are much bigger might have a different experience. I really can't fault the race organizers on anything. (A second entrance to the venue would be great but I know there is only one entrance at the bottom) Or warn people to come early
