    Anybody here suffer from a stress fracture at the top of the femur? Went to the doctor about an ongoing nagging ache in my hip area. She did x-rays and, hello, what is that hair line mark on the top of the femur. Now I have to wait till 26 April to see a orthopedic guy to do an MRI so a closer look can be made.

    Condolences to the families of the 2 cyclists and the marshal. Very sad indeed. RIP to the cyclists and marshal.

    Anyone here been diagnosed with compartment syndrome? going for sonars but it looks more and more like what I am experiencing. Wondering, without looking at google, what the treatment is like and whether it means no running for a while. I will be very sad.

    Did not run the marathon, only the 10km. Nicely organised. Nice route but very popular so a bit congested in places. Overall good run.

    I experienced the same thing when at home. I thought they scored that as an automatic safe day

    Funny thing is that the Gautrain trip is picked up on safe dayz and it rates at 100%. Not sure if t picks it up that it is the train but if not that train goes at 160km an hour.

    Thanks Gen. Not showing at all.

    Gen - We were on Private Club in 2017. I see we are still on Private Club (bonus!) for 2018. I am busy doing all the questionnaires, etc. to get the points that I can upfront. However, does this mean we are on Private Club till the end of the year and then reassessed again for 2019 based on the points earned in 2018? Another question is: - My safe days is only picking up some trips I make in a day. This morning's journey was not picked up at all. My location setting on my phone is on and I had it with me. Why would that be?

    Very pretty. However, will stick to my Brooks.

    Done about 10 Parkruns. Only done the Midstream one. Cannot get below 28 minutes. Very frustrating

    Haha Irene Club is the closest. Will give them a shout and see what they have to offer. Thanks.

    Anyone a member of Run / Walk for Life? Is it worth joining for their training? I am looking for somebody to run with as well as have structured training for up to 21km.

    Did the King Price Irene Farm race (half marathon) on Saturday. Very cold morning with blustering wind Very nice run. Great scenery, well organised, not a double lap, etc. Was very chilly and due to the numbers who entered, the start (uphill) was very slow. Once out of the ARC the field opened up and we could run our own race. My 2nd half marathon done and finished it in 2 hours 16 minutes (first one was the Clover Irene Race and finished that in 2 hours 33 minutes). Nice mix of uphills and down hills. Some offroad, etc. Will put this in my calendar for next year.

    Exactly my problem as well. Funny thing is that it swaps legs every now and then.

    "The funny part is I have this stiffness in the outside of my calf, the muscle there that goes right up into the back of the knee. That is stiff and sore." This is exactly what I have. It is really frustrating and I cannot find out what is causing it. If you ever work out what it is, please let me know.

    Bought the Brookes Ghost 10 for ladies. I found them super comfortable from day 1. Each foot is different though

    Decided to run my first half marathon yesterday. Quite a flat route. Harder than I thought but made it home in 2 hours 30 minutes. Now the bug has bitten. I want to do another one but train properly for it. Anyone got a half marathon training program I can follow or know where I can find one please
  21. ycowley
    Can anyone suggest a flatish 21 km for a first time 21km runner please? I live in Centurion and run on the road.
  22. ycowley
    My active dayz is also stuffed. They say there is a technical issue which they are working on
  23. ycowley
    Lots of thick, loose sand. Take your bucket and spade along to play on the "beach"
  24. ycowley
    Will have to wait to join a club until after October as the 21km race that I have ear marked for my first is the one that the club that I am thinking of joining organises and the club members are prohibited from running the race as they must volunteer to work.
