    I am on my third pair of Zoomflys and average about 650-700km on a pair

    I first need to get 70.3 EL out of the way in 2 weeks, then it is full focus on IM

    I took a break from it last year, so decided to give a go again. This week is still a hard and long training week, but from next week slowly starting to decrease volumes

    Its very quite here given how close we are to EL. How is everyone's training going?

    Weird how things work out sometimes. Last year I decided to take a break from triathlon in 2019 and make Comrades 2019 my main goal and I started training hard. Second week in January I stepped into a pot hole while running. Ligament damage. 8 weeks without running, so the end of my Comrades goal. I obviously was very negative about this. I decided I would enter for 70.3 Durban. Did lots of cycling, swimming, strength work while not being able to run. And then got running going when ankle healed. Body felt in great shape by 70.3 Durban time. Did the race and qualified for 70.3 Worlds in Nice in September. So as you said don't let injuries get you down

    My Nike Zoom Fly Flyknit's are nearing the end of their lifespan. I cannot seem to find any online. Sportsmans Warehouse has, but not my number. Does anyone know where I can find these guys. I have found them brilliant running shoes and do not want to switch back to the Pegasus at this point.

    How long until you are running again? I sprained my ankle last week, stepping into a pot hole. 3-4 weeks without running. So lots of swimming and strength training in my future

    I haven't posted here in a while. Last couple of seasons Ironman/70.3 was my main focus. This year I decided its time to tick that Comrades box. But since July I have been struggling with injuries. Before these injuries, I have had no injuries for probably 3 years+. First I injured a tendon in my foot, which took about 2 months to heal. Now my ITB started with issues. So I have lost about 2.5 half months' run training (still keeping swimming and cycling going). The problem is, I have Soweto marathon coming up at the beginning of November and I am seriously undertrained. My fitness is fine, but time on legs not so much. Time goals have gone out the window. I am now considering if its actually worth doing it and risking more injuries by going into a marathon underprepared.

    Prep has gone well. Had the flu 2 weeks ago, but I think it gave my body a much needed break from training after IMSA. Rather undertrained and well rested than overtrained and tired. Looking forward to a good time and some summer days. Drafting should be better given the new loops. To be honest I don't give it much thought. I focus on my own race and those who want to cheat, well go for it.

    3000m swim today, 5hr bike tomorrow and 2.5 run on Sunday. Next week is a recovery week. I have learned that recovery is as important as training when you hit 40.
