Eldron Posted September 3, 2014 Share Fo shizzle! The running legs are coming along nicely - bring on the pain I have a feeling this one is gonna be flatnfast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCVenter Posted September 3, 2014 Share Second one for me, will be better prepared this time.... Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret69 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Yep I'm In, race packs usually come on the Wednesday but haven't received mine yet. Spoke to Fritz at Trailseeker Saturday, he rates this one will be easier again than Hakahana (as hakahana was easier than Heia)... then we are gonna *** off at Van Gaalens at #4. Saw their Recce Ride on Strava of the Bike course, looks reasonably flattish (about 250m ascent) Should be Fun...

kingalton Posted September 3, 2014 Share After Eldron beat me by 2min13seconds at the Dualx2, I realised my running sucks and I have decided to give up Duathlons.. kidding, need the time in the saddle, so have opted for the 6hr mtb at PBHS on Sat afternoon..

Eldron Posted September 3, 2014 Share This will be my first time racing at ARC roodeplaat, and FINALLY we will get to see richard murray vs brand du plessis... Go Veldbrandt! Ooooooh! This should be exciting. I reckon Brand will be faster on the bike and Richard faster on the feet.

Eldron Posted September 3, 2014 Share I bet the physio at HPC 1kg biltong that Brand beats Richard, so you better be right! Brand has done some amazing things on the mtb lately - multiple age group world champ. I also think he has the advantage on very technical trail runs. Roodeplaat run will favour Richard more as it's less technical. Bring on Saturday - it will be an awesome spectacle to see....for the first 1km :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingalton Posted September 3, 2014 Share Brand first run at the last was 3:37/km - 2nd run was 3:44m/km - that is some fast running, especially offroad... Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purnjap Posted September 3, 2014 Share ....for the first 1km :-) = exactly (We musn't write off phil buys nê... one day is one day) Brand first run at the last was 3:37/km = and on THAT terrain! but whether the flatter stuff will play against him this weekend remains to be seen Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
