Stretch Posted September 10, 2019 Share My point is that they don't really care how well you can run, but rather have you done an affiliated event.I still don't understand though. All events have affiliated qualifying events. Take for example the Boston Marathon... Try find a marathon in SA that can be used to qualify for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronniek Posted September 11, 2019 Share So to everyone doing CT this weekend are you happy with your seedings? I sort of expected the B I received but see there are already moans and groans from others regarding theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjommies3 Posted September 11, 2019 Share So to everyone doing CT this weekend are you happy with your seedings? I sort of expected the B I received but see there are already moans and groans from others regarding theirs. I got E. Not chuffed but I didn't have any race for them to reference. I wonder how many groups there are in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronniek Posted September 11, 2019 Share I got E. Not chuffed but I didn't have any race for them to reference. I wonder how many groups there are in total.Think G is the lowest. My buddy and his uncle also didn’t enter any race times and they ended up in G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjommies3 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Think G is the lowest. My buddy and his uncle also didn’t enter any race times and they ended up in G. I only had a half marathon from March, not sure how much it helped. The only advantage is that I don't like starting too fast. It will take some doing to catch up but if I'm early enough, I can stand at the front of E, and basically be D.

shaper Posted September 11, 2019 Share Also inn B, it is is what it is, was not expecting to be up there with the racing snakes! Weather looking good, nice and cool, not much wind. Edit: Hopefully my rotator cuff injury from racing Bela-Bela 5150 will not impede too much, been ok up to 30kms so far, but painful once stopped running... pain in shoulder also takes away pain in legs Edited September 11, 2019 by shaper Hacc and Lexx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewbacca Posted September 11, 2019 Share This looks like a pretty cool trail run. https://port2port-ultra.co.za/In 2014 we did something similar but had a detour through Fraser George at the end on the 3rd leg of Expedition Africa. It was RAD! That really is pretty amazing territory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
