Prestige Ultra


Face Plant

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

 

really sorry for not responding to any posts earlier, let me try to address all the questions

 

1.The Prestige Ultra has always taken place at one of two venues, Vanderbijlpark or Sasolburg.we have been negotiating with two venues regarding hosting of the event, i can now confirm that the event will again be held at Abrahamsrust the same as last year.

 

2. the Prestige Ultra event is not sanctioned by TSA as from last year and those of you that may have been there last year will agree that the race standard was higher than ever before.

 

3.Garfield please PM me your details and i will follow up with Cyclelab about your entry.

 

4. finding the perfect date for an ultra event is always tough but we felt that the buffelspoort and Prestige are well placed as last training events for IM in April

 

more info about the race:

Looking forward to this event again. Last year was great.

Definitely a well organised great value-for-money event.

Hi All

 

A little new to the sport. Have done some sprints and olympic distance ones. looking to do the ultra but concerned about the route profile of the cycle leg. Is there anyone who can share the route profile from last year or give guidance regarding the difficulty of the cycle leg.

 

Runner training for comrades who like to dabble in other sports.

Looks like the same route as last year - fast route (But I do have very bad short term memory when it comes to hills though. And I was in good shape last year.). Less than 500m climbing. Trying to find the profile from last year on garmin connect now.

Hi,

 

Quick question, I presume the Olympic distance is non drafting? Just want to make sure I don't take my tri bike if it is a draft legal race.
