reteid Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 worked up a bit of a sweat in the process.
reteid Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 cycling training near a snow volcano was a bit different than the south easter and hot weather of cape town.
Snytjie Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Hi, Well done on the race. How would you compare the vibe/organising with East London?

How would you compare the vibe/organising with East London?the vibe was much more laid back.organizing was as good as east London.they do not have tents or bike and bag runs however.so its like normal ie put all your stuff out in transition.got a cool IM logo finisher towel as you finish however and some good food and rehydration within 10 steps of the finish.probably because its a much smaller event than el.about 1200 entrants.so no ques at end.the organization was a breeze.
