FanieFiets Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 For Jailbreak, not for Ironman.40 min swim, 2:45 cycle and 3hour walk. Damn, nearly died on the run/walk.
hboli4 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 I rode the new IMSA route while down in P.E. over the holidays. Will surely be doing some hill training in the months to come...Now just to find some decent ones in Bloem, unfortunately nothing really compares to what we will be facing on a loop. Don't want to discourage anyone, I'm not much of a climber. Only advise I have is to take it much slower than normal on the first bike lap.
dracs Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 Also done the route now - definately kicks up quite a bit on the lake farm road and maitlands to a lessor degree - but for context a 90km lap in PE still easier than the EL 70.3 bike leg.... Easterly wind on the coastal section towards to university is a killer though...
Bubblez Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 Happy new year gang, know I'm six days late. But managed to lock myself out over the holidays and could only reset my password this am.!!!! Here's to a good IMSA2014
Garfield2010 Posted January 6, 2014 Author Posted January 6, 2014 Got my training back on track this weekend. Ran 33km and biked 130 TT
ADe Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 12 weeks!!!Wow, the time as flown by. My main focus for now is the 70.3, then one week rest and then start all over again.
bigjoe Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 Wow, the time as flown by. My main focus for now is the 70.3, then one week rest and then start all over again.Yip. Same here. Last weekend of longer distance for me.....then 2 weeks of short faster distance.
SwissVan Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Got my training back on track this weekend. Ran 33km and biked 130 TT That's nearly as much as my 2 week total mileage high for 2013This IM training is hard to find time for....
Garfield2010 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Posted January 7, 2014 That's nearly as much as my 2 week total mileage high for 2013This IM training is hard to find time for.... Still plenty of time
SwissVan Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Still plenty of time Yeah.. waiting for summer and those days when the sun sets at 9pm or later...
FanieFiets Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I had a fantastic slump over December. Did basically nothing especially the running! Started again last week and aim is to miss as few as possible sessions. Will start with the super long sessions next week.
ADe Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 So for those who have done both the EL 70.3 bike course and the new PE course, how does the two compare?
fabes Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 So for those who have done both the EL 70.3 bike course and the PE new course, how does the two compare?Pe is definitely an "easier" 90km loop BUT you have to do 2 x loops in the full. I was thinking about it the other day and II think yo can double your half time to get an idea of what you would be capable of in the full
