Frosty Posted May 3, 2020 Share First run, longer than 5Km, in 6 weeks - felt like it would take forever to finish. Plan was to run at 6:30/Km, and I finished in 6:39. As hard as it felt, it still beats trying to make a plan at home. ChrisF, Lotus and Hacc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezer Posted May 3, 2020 Share This morning I went for 10km run and thought, why not do a half marathon? So I soldiered on.my last half marathon was 4 years ago and my longest run in the past 4 years was 12 km. Look like my nipples got softer!

As hard as it felt, it still beats trying to make a plan at home.Did the first 10k run in weeks on Friday and it felt easy, though not fast. Skipped yesterday, but today's 10k felt like there was no fuel in the tank. I guess it's going to take a bit of time to get back. Quite a few runners out in Fourways this morning, but I was disappointed by the number of cyclists riding in groups on Cedar Road. Social distancing, not much.

shaper Posted May 3, 2020 Share Managed a comfortable 21km this morning, was doing it as part of the IM Virtual Race challenges. Legs felt surprisingly good. Happy to be out on the road again! Lotus, Chris_ and Frosty 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaBee Posted May 4, 2020 Share Made the mistake of hitting the mountain as soon as I could. I can walk properly today again. Even yesterday I was going down the stairs like somebody that did a marathon! Strange how we get used to what we can do... and then 5 weeks pass. Despite still being fit, trail running is a different animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ive right at the foot of Muizenberg peak and could do amazing 30km loops on amazing trails within the 5km radius but unfortunately all 'Parks are closed.

I normally run trail almost exclusively. On Friday I hit the tar, did about 15ks and the next day I hurt like I did a 6 hour trail run! I put it down to harder surface and repetitive nature of road running. Been on the treadmill every day prior to level 4, but didn't prepare me for the tar!

We do have access to some of the mountain before we hit the reserve areas. On Friday we weren't quite so aware of the reserve being closed so did sortof venture into there slightly...

Now they just look at me teasingly.... I won't complain about the weird and wonderful rules which make little sense. I am grateful to be able to get out and pound the pavement and take the doggos with me. After all the Zwift I have lungs and fitness but my inside quads are taking strain with this weight bearing thing! SeaBee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewbacca Posted May 5, 2020 Share Yo whats happening with your 200 miler?It has officially been postponed until 2021, either in June or between August and October depending on the vaccine situation and regulations. It's definitely still happening as we stand, just a bit later than expected. I'm bleak as I was feeling so strong before lockdown and was secretly hoping to race it race it at the pointy end. We will see what 2021 brings. Otherwise all my generous donors get their money back! Chris_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
