  1. I went from a Standard to Triple to a Compact. Very happy with Compact
  2. Mine is not going very well. Had to try very hard this morning on my run to chase the rabbit at 5h45 min / km. Managed to catch the rabbit at the 9km point.
  3. Yesterday I was running down Beyers from Northumberland toward the video area late afternoon and a female person from the dark side just could not wait at the robots like everyone else and simply overtook all the cars in the emergency lane and came straight at me. I had no choice but to get the hell out of the lane onto the dirt. Wonder if she got the message when I tossed a duracell her way as she passed
  4. Go to the Fittrack site. Currently the triathlon programs (or most of them) are free or not very expensive and give a fair idea of what needs to be done and then lets you track where you are. Of course its not going to tell you how you should be doing things but there's enough folks on this site who would be more than willing to help with info on how and technique.
  5. Great way to get attention and advertise your business
  6. Right round the corner where I live. The taxi's do it all the time. When I go running in the mornings or afternoons they come right at you and you have to vacate the emergency lane or face being run over. They dont give a damn. So now I go running and pick up stones as I go along and I use them to great effect. Have not smashed any windows yet but certainly get a reaction. Fortunately no one has decided to come back for more. As for cycling up Beyers no chance.
  7. As a TSA member are we supposed to get a TSA card ? I have been a member for quite a few years and dont ever remember seeing anything in the post or otherwise.
  8. Exactly whats the point ... All it is is a big brother type scam with other devious goals in mind. Certainly not here to help the general public at all. All they are doing is making sure that we the public are not screwing the government.
  9. This is not the first time this happened. I've seen this happen in a few races over the last few years.
  10. Xcellent stuff congrats lad. Here's to the future Iron man participants come 2033. Dad's setting a high standard
  11. So Mr H why is it that, the few who understand that people in general dont like change, get upset, when their efforts to instill change in those who dont want change is ignored ?
  12. Its getting there slowly. Bit of slippage here and there. Calves are tired today.
  13. Unfortunately my brand new 310XT has not helped my running pace at all. Perhaps I should concentrate on the running and less on the watch
  14. R1700 inc. with a premium HRM. There I said it.
  15. OK just make sure when you arrive at the Garmin Concept store in Honeydew you say the battery is dying .
  16. So the battery on my Garmin 305 was not holding charge. I went into the Garmin Concept shop in Honeydew and asked if they would replace the battery. The gent behind the counter said they could not as it was a sealed unit BUT would accept my Garmin as a trade-in on a new one. When I heard the actual price I almost did a double back flip especially knowing the price of new units. Needless to say i whipped out the credit card and walked out with a brand new 310XT and a huge smile on my face. So I wont mention figures but if you have an old Garmin and are considering buying a new Garmin I definitely suggest a visit to the store with your old Garmin in hand.
  17. Go into Westdene with cash notes the price changes instantly. Generally their prices are higher than CRC cash and kontant gets you below or same as CRC
  18. I never buy anything until I have checked out pricing on all the online stores. Believe me they check each other out and make sure their prices are competitive.
  19. Last year I used to do 5150 distances for training on Tues and Thu right through winter. This winter I'm struggling to find time just to run 30k's. So you and I both come August
  20. I dont like that hill to the right. At the top of that hill is a sign post in the middle of the emergency lane. In march i had just done a 150k session and had 30k's to go. I was very tired and not paying attention. Wham smack into the sign post. That ended my session immediately and I retreated home with a very bruised ego but otherwise ok
  21. also where would one buy tickets for the game I dont see anything for the bulls sharks game on computicket ?
  22. What would it cost to take the gautrain from Sandton to Hatfield and back ? also the game starts at 19h00 and ends around 21h00 so if the last train leaves is at 20h30 then this is a no go ??
  23. No you must not turn right lad. Left is the way to go back to the circle round the circle and home yes a bit of a uphill but nothing like the other way
  24. After a week of being ill with der infamous snotty nose I went for a run this morning @ 5. Damn it was slow. Slowest time ever for that route. The over thing is my resting heart rate has gone from 47 to 60 overnight. I cant get it below about 58.
  25. I park at Something Country at the cradle itself do my cycling then do a 10k brick afterwards. Much safer.
