  1. Cycling Weeklys TDF rating. Spot on. Do we still have to claim them as a SA team?
  2. https://cyclingtips.com/2019/07/mike-woods-the-first-man-to-run-a-sub-4-minute-mile-and-finish-the-tour-de-france/ Surely the sub 4 mile is the bigger achievement?
  3. At least they would have gotten some TV time with Cav.
  4. More importantly, will Meintjies waste another year of his career with them? If it's not too late already.
  5. Thats just wrong, who eats raw squirrels? Everyone knows that deep fried squirrel is the best.
  6. One of my favorite bands, but probably the last band I want to see live. They are done, Malcolm is gone, they should call it quits. That said they can't be worse than current day GNR.
  7. Is it normal to still struggle after Comrades? My longest run the last month was only 9km, and I felt like dying. Im also stiff and sore even after a 5k trot.
  8. Decided to give one of my guitars some love. Solid brass bridge pins and I decided to go back to elixers. The difference is mind blowing. New pedals should also arrive this week, nothing like new gear to boost motivation.
  9. Im actually refering to shoes used by other elite runners. Like the Sauconys in the article. I ran a 17min marathon PB the first time I used Vaporflys. The shoes definitely matter.
  10. He still needs 7min to be world class competitive, Saucony will have to do some more research. ???? Kipchoge will still be a 2h02 runner in any pair of shoes.
  11. Well Im running a 2h45 marathon in 3 months. And fu*cks, sh*ts and carrots.
  12. But he still failed the challenge. The second ridiculous challenge he attempted. Both his Everest and half marathon attempts were impressive, but way off his targets. Targets announced very arrogantly and with fanfare galore. Should we pat his head?
  13. Bloody hell, he ran 1h29 in a pair of Speedcross takkies. Im no Vanzweelawhatwhat fan but thats impressive. Those shoes are only meant to be worn with your jean pants while shopping in Menlyn. Still waay off his target though.
  14. All my shoes started feeling a little flat after 500km.
  15. Maybe its just me but every social media post from Ann comes across a little whiny and negative. On the other end Camille and Gerda is always bubbly and even making fun of bad situations.
  16. I found a pair at Woodmead Nike store last week.
  17. He's obviously got a very impressive engine to do a sub 90 with only 6 weeks of running. But that 75 was indeed a pipe dream.
  18. I checked it on Google earth. Its not really hairpins but big round abouts, he should be able to maintain speed going around it.
  19. Well I read about descaling about 4 comments back..???? Im no coffee boffin, but I do like a quick espresso before a run. And looking at my kettle Im pretty sure my el cheepo espresso machine is pretty much clogged up inside.
  20. Quick question on descaling. Do you just run the solution through the machine, or do you leave in there to do its thing?
  21. You actually made this sound very appealing. A little different than the run of the mill big city Marathons.
  22. The back to back is a big carrot, after that it will take quite some convincing to get some runners back.
  23. She passed me at about 2km. And she was flying, I just shook my head, this G grouper obviously didn't listen to Parry. Who knew..
