sluiper Posted November 1, 2012 Share 11 Weeks to go. How is your training going guys? I would say my progress looks like this:Swim: 65%Bike: 55%Run: 20%of where I want to be by 20 Jan. So lots of hard work lying ahead during Nov/Dec, but at least I have been sticking to my training program for the past 2 weeks and I am still slowly building on my run distances. Not so good for me. This weekend at Slanghoek was a bit of an eye opener, finished in 3:20 (including a flat on the bike).At least I know there's a lot of work still to be done. Swim: 50%Bike: 90%Run: 5% I hate running so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADe Posted November 1, 2012 Share I also have that issue. I'm keeping my distances short (5-7km) and building base. Did GunRun and it actually went okay... 2:18. It's not super fast but at least I was able to run 95% of the time. So I'm gonna continue with the shorter distances for now, and then maybe ramp it up in Dec and seeing how it goes. Same here. Running is really tough to get going. I am going to keep my distances between 5-7km for the next 2-3 weeks, with a 10k thrown in next weekend and see how I feel by end of November. Then I might start increasing the distances. I guess its a case of listening to your body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sluiper Posted November 1, 2012 Share My overall time was 3h27 - what was yours? maybe we already know each other? 3:22. If we had to run another kilometer I'm sure you would have passed me I was running so slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGR Posted November 1, 2012 Share Only Teams can substitute, individuals are not allowed to... They introduced a new rule last year to allow subsitutions? it was driven by the athletes Call Sharon at Triangle - she will sort you out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGR Posted November 1, 2012 Share 3:22. If we had to run another kilometer I'm sure you would have passed me I was running so slowly.Ill assume your name starts with C as it was the slowest run time of the 3 people who finished in that time. Our swim was almost exactly the same. 1h39 Bike Slipt! nicely done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a substitution, but it looks like the organisers kept the original guy's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
