Due to the nature of the route we are doing the cradle bike and run. Will try and find a dam close buy next week. If not, gripen can put in his polly-otter and go swim in the local pool on the Saturday.

Guys

 

A group of us training for the 70.3 in January wants to do a big training cession on the 16th of December.

 

We are looking to swim 2km in a dam somewhere....

 

Then Cycle around 60-80km's

 

And then run around 15km's

 

Heie Safari dam is out of the order as they decided to get a hippo.......

 

We are considering the Emmarentia dam at the moment with that 10km loop in Greenside followed by the run in the Botanical Gardens (4.5km laps).

 

Has anyone else had the same idea?

 

Any other venues that could work? (that is not too far and has good cycling roads adjacent?)

You serious about the hippo ? Did you phone them?

If so it's very bad because that the best swimming places in Gauteng

So guys, how was your training yesterday? I did my own session here in KBY, 1,5 swim, 70 cycle and 18 run. Went well, except for run where my legs was klaar after 12ks. And it was scorching HOT of course.

[Garfield2010]

Was good thanks

 

did 70km cycling and then a 13km run on a difficult route. Was hot as hell but the guys enjoyed it. We will do the same this coming Sat if anyone is interested...... Maybe we can start at 05h30 this time around?
