b-rad Posted November 16, 2018 Share Had an interesting chat with a work colleague that runs close to 4:00/Km for a 21.1Km compared to my 5:40/Km.She’s a novice cyclist and will be doing 947 for the first time, compared to my better cycling pedigree.Both our rides will be converted back to min/Km and then added together to get a combined race time. I’m curious to see who is quicker.Depending on how well she is able to ride in a bunch and preserve energy without getting carried away I suspect you have a big challenge. I suspect she will be well under 4h40 (depending on tactical abilities of course). Running at about 4min/km for a 21km is rapid so the speed is there it's just a matter of slowing it down effort wise for a longer period. I have done my quickest Amashova of 2h43 off a purely running build up. It's far easier moving from running to cycling. Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieter1 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Finished my second ever marathon yesterday. Was way undertrained but felt better than the previous. Finished in 4:07 but could have broken the three if Insocial less at the water tables but a fun day out none the less. Mens winner was in at 2:20.19. Crazy.

Frosty Posted November 18, 2018 Share What was the outcome?I’ll find out tomorrow. I did 2:47, so her time needs to be closer to the 4:50-5:00 mark. Hacc, Chris_ and tjommies3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaws677 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Jaws do you run with Craig Hammer and the crew?No I wish. I run with a group in Jukskei Park. Those guys are way out of my league I don't even stay in the area anymore but still drive there everyday for the run.Neil usually joins our group when he wants to do a slow run.
