Sportsworld.co.za Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Does that mean that there might be some Comrades special coming up, ha ha Seriously though, good on you for entering. Definitely - same as last year
ScottCM Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 my though on tapering for marathons in lue of preparation for comrades is......easy slow thursday run and rest on Friday and saturday How's everyones training going - I am definitely in a better position that I was this time last year....gonna keep it steady with about 40 -50 km per week till the end of the year and then start ramping it up from january Got a half coming up on 8th Nov with a goal to do my qualie in Feb next year I read somewhere that you had to start tapering for a marathon from 3 weeks out, but as you mentioned the ultimate goal here is Comrades and not a blistering Marathon. So I see the logic in what you are saying, thanks , this is another important piece of advice greatly appreciated. I have now built myself up to 15km of easy jogging at a time while riding on alternative days. Had my best run yesterday, nothing special happened, i just loved every single sec of it. Next wkn is my 1st Triathlon, then after the 947 i plan on building on the running, and using the Johnson Crane Marathon on the 31st Jan as my Qualifier. Stretch 1
rpedro Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Well rpedro, if you're doing it, I'm in as well! Entered. I think we should start a BikeHUB Strava Comrades Running group Jigghead, Sportsworld.co.za and Vinnydabutcher 3
ScottCM Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 I think we should start a BikeHUB Strava Comrades Running group Created a "BikeHub" club, is that correct? If so i need names to invite everyone. If incorrect i will leave it up to someone else to create as i don't know how.
rpedro Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I'm quickly trying to set one up. Will post details shortly ScottCM 1
SeaBee Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Only for Comrades runners or mere mortals (aiming to do their 1st marathon next month) too?
rpedro Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I created a club....https://www.strava.com/clubs/164275 Everyone is welcome
Pieter1 Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Till when can you enter? Could I still enter by the end of the month?
ScottCM Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Till when can you enter? Could I still enter by the end of the month? Entries close 30th November or when 20K cap is reached, they on 12363 at the moment so you should be good Edited October 21, 2015 by ScottC-M Pieter1 1
ScottCM Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 I created a club....https://www.strava.com/clubs/164275 Everyone is welcome Thanks just change the date to 2016 rpedro 1
SeaBee Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Don't know whether it's to do with the setup of the group (or my user setup) - but I ONLY see cycling activity. One thing that the leaderboards are for cycling, but even the "recent activity" tab only shows cycling acticity and not even my runs from yesterday or Saturday. Also none for anybody else, but I know I've done those runs... Vinnydabutcher 1
Vinnydabutcher Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 How do you change it to show running stats?
Pieter1 Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Entries close 30th November or when 20K cap is reached, they on 12363 at the moment so you should be goodSorry but can I enter, then join a club etc?
rpedro Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 How do you change it to show running stats? I changed it to running and now I'm no longer on the leader board :-D
Stretch Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Im in...seems I am a bit behind everyone else in total distances per week......
