Jewbacca Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 16 week Marathon program steered this week... Not feeling very motivated at all!I'm running Red Hill in 24 days and I haven't strapped my road shoes on since 2 Oceans. Been a crazy busy season for us too. Hoping to tick off a qualifier for Oceans early and allow myself some leeway in training for a big trail run/adventure in July without any road obligations getting in the way.... (besides Oceans) Luckily it's hilly and not flat and fast! Stretch, SwissVan and Ronniek 3
SwissVan Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 16 week Marathon program steered this week... Not feeling very motivated at all! Which marathon? Don't laugh....I'm thinking of starting a 10k or maybe starting with a 5k run program with the end of goal of racing a Std tri in June / July... Will also need to couple it with sme swim and TT training...

SwissVan Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 Boston in April.... Winter training is no fun Nice, enjoy the journey (training) Tell me about it, I'm really struggling to motivate myself to go out in the cold.To make it worse we have "the fog" which has been covering our area for weeks, nice and sunny above the fog This webcam shot from the hill overlooking Zug Stretch, Frosty and Hacc 3
Jewbacca Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 So.... If you guys are feeling generous in the new year, check out the Eden to Addo corridor initiative. I'm doing the run regardless, but it would be rad if I could throw some donation coin into the pot.... If you can, rad, otherwise maybe I will re ask after everyone gets paid on the 92nd of January! https://www.backabuddy.co.za/guy-twc

Jewbacca Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 I have Red Hill marathon on the 25th of Jan, 2 Oceans in April and The Tusker in July. I think I might quit running for a while after that. Another slow ploddy year leading up to that beast in July... I should hit 100 mountain km this afternoon for 2020. Been a good 1st week! Duane_Bosch 1

Township(Feb), Jackie Gibson(March), and pump up the rest of my Comrades prep by doing my own thing. Might do a race just before the fasting month of Ramadhan. Jewbacca and Hacc 2
dave303e Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 I am gonna open a gym called "Resolutions". It will have fitness equipment for the first month and then become a bar from Feb-Dec. While I had not planned on a huge amount of running, I am now doing a large AR with a few rather good runners so I will have to be upping my game a lot... Jewbacca and Duane_Bosch 2

I'm sorry to be missing it but 2 weeks away and a week being away from comms won't suit the wife and the baby currently.

I'm sorry to be missing it but 2 weeks away and a week being away from comms won't suit the wife and the baby currently. no Ants there this year... but a solid team of runners. Understandable about the family though, but then again I know of a 6month old that topped sterkhorn a few weeks ago. Jewbacca 1

Mine has been up to Maclears and up and down the mast a few times, but it's the being away from comms that's the issue. No Ants! Yoh....
