I ran a half last Saturday by myself 'for fun' (it was raining and windy so didn't want to ride)...I got just over 2 hours running (theyre was a bit of extra tune for liking for taps for water), so i think with a bit training I won't hit the wall at 18km :)

Unfortunately I have a tyke in mind already

 

Be bold and post up the time goal then.... :devil:  :whistling:

I'm now in week3 of Couch to 5K.... Just like to put it out there...

 

After every run I drink some coffee... It's a pretty big accomplishment...

Keep at it and stick with the dedication.   Next year this time, you will not believe yourself if you try and remind you how much you suffered now!

new member to the running thread?...welcome...comrades report back is compulsory 

 

Haha thanks for the welcome! I'm ashamed to admit I've been following this thread since last Comrades and finally decided to get involved

 

But I managed to lock in my back to back this year 10:45, 1h15 improvement from last year and confirmed that I much prefer the down run!

Congrats and welcome. Sis on you for hiding in the shadows. Your experience from your first Comrades not to speak of the qualifiers etc could have helped some novices out, just kidding, well sorta :devil:

Couldn't agree more. You never know whom you are helping with your posts and replies.

Today I asked my coach to up my running volume. What is happening to me!? I used to swear I am not a runner (ok, maybe a jogger, but you get the point).

Hi, my name is MJ and I am addicted to running... [emoji4]

Dont go saying that to loud on any other thread, you might just get nuked :whistling:

Hahaha, I am sure I will. What I meant was that after a long ride (100km+) I can still walk normal and go to a family braai. After a marathon I just want to stay in bed and sleep.

I See Soweto Marathon is Sold out 

 

Which Hubbers will be at the starting line?

Only have done it once, will never do it again. (did it back in 2014...I think it was before Old Mutual took it over.)

It used to be a complete dogshow... they've got it right now though, would highly recommend it

What a journey. It was my first ever marathon, ran it in November last year. I smacked the wall at about 34km and vividly remember thinking "£$%^ this distance. Half marathon is more suited to me. And I'm NEVER running Comrades!"
