Cyclists with a "Running" Problem

[Ferret69]

Well Done Ferret on your awesome Skukuza Time. Sh@t Thats damn fast.

 

Thanks Lexx, Well done on your race too... Sorry about the Calf Niggle.. 93 is still a great run.

 

Man, I love that race... I don't know why but I always seem to run well there... Must be the 1300m of Altitude Drop from Jhb as its not the easiest course or terrain.

Do you guys stretch after every run?

I do, but I follow the Sage Canaday way of cooling down first and then stretching.

 

I do a light after run stretch (I refer to it school boy stretches), finger flicking, leg pendulums shoulders, light stuff like that.

 

The deep stretching I do about 30 minutes after or sometimes even just before bed time. After long distances (15km's or more per run) I do an after stretch and then again a morning stretch.

I was blown away at that!

[Lexx]

How the hell do they walk that fast for a 21km.....

 

I am doing something terribly wrong on my training.

Check the slow mo video that Ross Tucker posted on Twitter. Its a joke actually, its not walking at all. At best a very quick shuffle.

Slow shuffling sub 4s is still pretty impressive [emoji23]

Went down with a cold/flu since Friday. Will see how I feel tomorrow, maybe a slow run. My whole house has got the sniffles... Think its the turn of the season, maybe.

It is, wish I could run sub4s???? It really is impressive,I think the issue is the inconsistency in wich they apply rules. Disqualifying one walker while everyone is in the wrong is just silly.

Impressive times, but such a ridiculous contrived sport in my view...

[Hacc]

I won't mind shuffling at 4 min/km. I agree with Andrew, I actually struggled to watch it. 

 

Hope everyone had a good training weekend. I got a bit of a calve muscle niggle... Going for a massage tonight. Struggled to run on Saturday and yesterday my legs were non-existent on the bike. Hope you feel better soon Lexx.

 

I am doing my first 21km on Sunday after Comrades... Well, that is going to be interesting, Athrochoice is one tough route... Hoping for muscle memory

Heal up Lexx and Hacc

 

Hopefully solved my Trail running shoe need with these:

So cheap it's worth the risk - reviews seem good and my experience with Mizuno has always been great - hopefully that doesn't change with these.

Hope to hear your review Andrew.

Hope everyone had a good training weekend.

 

for the first time in..I dont know how long...I had a bit of pace in my legs this weekend (HR was still up...but I am used to that now!). I am sure if I had slowed down a bit I could have brought the HR down...but it was so much fun getting some 4:20's and 4:30's into the mix
