HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great respect for all participants. You are the ****!!!

How do you refrain from drinking too much red wine and playing golf in-between IM races? Every day after work I actually relax - for the first time in 4 years. Love it. No good for fitness though...

Pretty good. We drive Chappies daily to work. The repair work at the stop and go is by the municipality and its contractors. Apart from the work in Muizenberg/Kalk Bay, I have never seen such slow progress in my life. The other stabilization work I imagine is part Entileni part CoCT. I don't see how that would progress faster, and plants take a lot of time to grow too. The whole prohibition of cycling/walking was ill thought out and doomed to fail from the beginning. It should have been an urgent warning of the danger and a confirmation that you use the road at own risk. Right now it only puts the guards in a awkward position: I can just imagine how many insults they had to endure when they still tried to stop cyclists...

Hi, I did IM in 2015 while on LCHF - sort of. You need carbs during extended training/races. An RQ test will show you that. Question is where do you get those carbs: eat it, or let your body try and supply through gluconeogenesis? I chose the former as I didn't want to strain my body even further than 'normal' IM strain. There is enough evidence to show that insulin production is suppressed during exercise which prohibits carb to fat production. It is burned as needed. I used Phil Mafetone's formula (180-age, +5-10 if you haven't been injured/burned out in past two years) to project where I use 50% glucose during exercise and simply ate that amount (per hour). I think this is essential for ultra races otherwise you will bonk. I later did a RQ test and it confirmed that his formula was spot on for me. I also took in carbs within the frist 30min after a long training session if I felt that I was depleted in any measure. My weight was completely within what I desired and as a non-talented athlete I did IM in 12:46 without any energy issues. Enough for me...

Thought Richard Murray had it all the way, but my word, this bra turn out to be a beast on Sunday...

Twee van ons. Ek dog dis 'n springtou sonder die tou. Jy weet, Wi styl tipe ding Aaaaaannnnyway....

Sorry, but I couldn't help chuckling about this. What exactly does a "digital skipping rope" do?

Start by proof-reading your press releases: "Standard Bank hopes to grow the Standard Bank IRONMAN® South Africa events into a truly world class Pan Africa endurance events" Also: no growing needed, these events are already worldclass. Add tangible value as pointed out above, not just advertisement garble...

I look forward to this season...

I've seen some not-so-shiny-gems in my short time on the Hub, but this one tops them all. Dude, your business much be a complete ****-up. Try something else.

SNAP!!!!
