Andrew Steer Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 I see some idiot appeared on my facebook feed harping on about cancelling the 2 oceans and argus tours because of the water usage. I could not comment because of privacy issues, but it infuriated me so much I actually messaged the idiot. Drives me mad how ignorant someone can be about actual water usage these mass sporting events actually use. As such I actually calculated the figuresagain - using comrades as a basesachets - 2 million - 200klshowers 40000 - 1000klother water (misters and hosepipes - 200kl thats 1400kl - avg annual usage for 30 households (a signal street in Cape Town). I reckon if you go to upper gardens you gonna see that consumption in 1 month from some of those households Rant over Yeah, and further... Argus is actually sending in 2 000 000 litres of water from upland to cover the tourist influx. And both events water for race day is also from outside for Cape Town. So it's no impact and a crap load of money coming into the Cape to help them cover the costs that lie ahead in getting out of this mess But yeah, people like to bitch and moan - often without even having the slightest clue what they are bitching and moaning about Lexx and Pulse 2

SeaBee Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 ...and you can remove showers from your calculations - I think both events said that there will be no shower facilities.
Lexx Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Little bit off topic. I need 2 persons to join my Vitality team. I have to kick my 2 friends off as they are bloody inactive and keep on costing me a extra smoothie every week. Edited January 31, 2018 by Lexx

Lexx Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 What are the requirements?Just be able to reach your target/points every week.

IH8MUD Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Can you do some light exercise while on Antibiotics. I've picked up a tummy bug and currently on Ciproxx. But I feel much better now, and don't wanna loose out on some training?Ciprofloxacin (Ciproxx is just one of the many trade names. Original Ciprobay) It is one of the class Fluoroquinolones (Quinilones) antibiotics.Been assosiated with Tendinopathy and tendon rupture. There is a bit of controversy about it, but that is what I was taught. I would avoid exercise, especially anything involving weights. Take a rest, you will benefit from it and stomach bugs normally does not take to long sort out. Most other classes antibiotics are not an issue with the exercise in itself, as mentioned by Pulse & SeaBee Just my 2cent. Hope it helps. Edited January 31, 2018 by IH8MUD Pulse and Lexx 2

The Extra Weekly Smoothie for 2 Friends hitting targets ended in October 2017 So no extra Smoothie's for anyone anymore it was replaced by the hit 3 targets in a row and get a Bonus Spin Surprise Reward.... which pretty much ends up being a free smoothie anyway (think I got a R150 voucher once) Edited January 31, 2018 by Ferret69 Lexx 1
Lexx Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Vitality Team rewards ended in October 2017 You're right, I remember now. That's why they brought in that Surprise Reward...

EmptyB Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Definitely, the pricing is pretty good in my books... even at small quantities you'll probably find them cheaper than buying a bunch of brand peaks at Totalsports etc. Give Elton the rep for Joburg a shout: Elton Herridge 082 336 5833 / elton@anatomic.co.zaSlightly off topic. Why none of those nice Caffeine Machine cycling caps at the Beyers Naude shop....went there to get one but alas.... You getting more in?
EmptyB Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Thanks SeaBee,Did a slow 5m run this morning. Heart rate was a little bit elevated, but just went a lot slower. Will just take it slow for a couple of days.You must stop overdoing these 5m runs Lexx, candz1, Barry Stuart and 2 others 5
