  1. I'm sure we can organize you a rooibos tea.
  2. We must organise a hub comrades short coffee run before the big day. Then we can all put faces to the names..
  3. I dont like the up runs. I am a much faster downhill runner. I did run my first Bill Rowan on the up run. But being away from the comrades scene such a long time, I will be happy to just finish below 9h. I actually enjoy my running again.
  4. I was wondering where you were with your bike lol. Was looking forward to an ice cold beer before that sh@t last hill. My race was ok. My plan was to just keep it slow and easy as it was a training run. But when the gun went off, so did my plan. I was feeling pretty good, and was hoping to do a Sub 4 hour, but that last loooong hill broke me and did a 4:10 in the end. And it was as cold as my mother-in-laws heart. But overall one of the best races in za. Love the waterpoints and support along the route.
  5. Doing the Loskop this Saturday,plus a extra 10km to get a 60km long run in. Sunday a slow and easy 10-15km . Next weekend maybe another 32km then tapering from May.Finally. The last week i've been working 12h a day, and getting a long run in was a bit of a struggle. But atleast I got to do a 105km week again. Legs are starting to feel a bit tired now. May needs to come so that the tapering can start.
  6. Where are those short shorts of yours stretch ha ha ha
  7. I think the route is the same, they just say on the website that the previous records doesn't work or count because of the road works or something like that. Hacc,put an ice cold beer in youre waterbottle for me please lol.
  8. Well Done everyone. Great time there Stretch. So this weekend will be the other guys (like myself) that didnt run the OMTOM to do a Ultra, The Loskop. I read that they change the road because of all the road works. Is it now flatter or easier? Because they also say that the previous records wont work this year.
  9. So jealous right now. Will def run the OMTOM again.
  10. That will be awesome. Just think its more than double the size of Comrades. That atmosfere wow.
  11. Just a quick Question about the Loskop Marathon. Is it possible to leave after I finished the race. Don't want to sit there until 13:00 or 14:00.
  12. I'm running for Nedbank, and love their Nike running club shorts. Not to short and not to long. Just the right length.
  13. Stretch should go over to those Pollyshort of old. My wife hated it when I used to run in them, because it left nothing to the imagination. Lol
  14. Walking Dead was a bit of a let down with its Season Finale. Thought it would be more intense and more fighting.
  15. Isn't the top runner wearing light racing shoes for the Comrades? Maybe I must also go for a lighter one. The new Nike Pegasus are a little bit heavier than the previous versions I think.
  16. That is true. Asics is getting ridiculous with their shoe prices.
  17. Had a cold the whole of last week, so my weekend long run that should have been a 50km, only ended up being a 35km. Legs had no power in them, and lungs didn't feel 100%, so at the 35km mark I was done. But the next morning i felt so much better, and ended up doing a 28km offroad/trail run with a friend. ( who can say no to a pretty girl ) Only one more tough month to go....
  18. That sucks. Hopefully you will feel 100% again before OMTOM
  19. Well my Wife doesn't complain I am 1.72. Not the tallest of riders..
  20. I am currently being the worst dad in the world. My son started to get sick Saturday Morning, and yesterday it went to his lungs and now he has a nasty cough. So my first reactions is, I chose the single seater couch in the living room, and push it 2-3m further away from where the family is sitting. My waterless hand-cleaner right next to me. And as quickly as I did it, the death stares started from my Boss Lady.. But its ok, only 9 more weeks then I will be part of family circle again. But as long as there are bugs in our circle, I'm Out!!
  21. That us just so de-motivating. Bloody strava is the Devil lol
