Garfield2010 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 JGR drank too much and become bloated due to it not being a hot day. He then started losing cabin pressure before crashing in the final parts of the run. Mystery solved
davem Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 What was the entry fee this year? I see R2000 next year.
davem Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Who loves their finisher shirts? I seriously don't understand how Merrell as a performance technical apparel brand would put their name on a shirt sourced from the same supplier that Julius and Zuma get their supporter shirts. I wear my 5150 shirts all the time, they are great. After promises of better shirts in the race live chat session by Paul Woolf, they come up with these. Suitable for car washing. By that I mean polishing the body work, not wearing while washing the car.

davem Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Also, what happened to the race website? Want to download the Excel results but the website has now gone and points to EU Ironman.

scottm Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I think I might have set a record for the longest T1 with 11:06
JGR Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 @JGR - Six bottles sounds way too much. Were you that thirsty? It wasn't very hot. DaveM I started with 600ml of roctane and 400m of Gu brew. I then took an additional 4 bottle on the course - those bottle were only half full. 2l ax I would think. 600ml and hour?
