JGR Posted May 13, 2014 Share I have entered 70.3. Have some unfinished business at this race. Don't think I will have finances for PE. Also I have come to realise that my holiday is not really a holiday when doing IM every year. I am more tired coming back to work. Hopefully the 70.3 will in general be more relaxing....You can take the time to greet me as you wizz by on the bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjoe Posted May 13, 2014 Share Sadly I will miss this one. Done 3 in a row. Decided to support he wife for a change after her and the kids have supported me at 2 full IM's. The kids have never seen her race at 70.3 so we will support her......time to give something back Sure I will regret it on the day....wishing i was doing it....but then again I'm going back to Full.

FanieFiets Posted May 13, 2014 Share I entered the Monday after IM. Not going to PE this year, I just do not have the time to put the training in for the full. I'm just not looking forward getting there.....very expensive OR very long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted May 13, 2014 Share Are we going to see you on the start line next year She-been?vjJGR, you know I can't afford it, that's like asking a bergie what car he's going to buy next. but seriously, definitely not if it's sold out this week.With totalsports challenge and dirtopia 24hr on the table it's a busy january already (without even mentioning attakwas).

Head up big guy im sure things will turn around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bclark Posted May 14, 2014 Share Entered as well. I just thought it was interesting and coincidental that when they air on Supersport, that they announce there is only X amount of places available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bclark Posted May 14, 2014 Share Hiya Im thinking of buying a sleeveless wetsuit for East London. Anyone got any views or thoughts about this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garfield2010 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Hiya Im thinking of buying a sleeveless wetsuit for East London. Anyone got any views or thoughts about this idea. I think its a bad idea. Obviously some people feel it gives them more shoulder freedom but remember EL's water is normally very cold so you would want to keep as warm as possible even if you lose a minute or two due to this. If you are not a very strong swimmer then I would not consider this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come visit in the Cape if you want to experience some cold water! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
