shaper Posted January 3, 2020 Share Dubai 70.3 first week in Feb before I even think about Durbs, although already entered.... IceCreamMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehosefat Posted January 7, 2020 Share Entered Durban 70.3 and planned to start training on the 2nd. Fell off my MTB on New Years Eve and stuffed my shoulder and elbow up so I can't swim or cycle outdoors for 4 to 6 weeks and cycling on the indoor trainer is really uncomfortable... Bugger Guess I'm going to be doing a lot of running over the next few weeks Vetplant and IceCreamMan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugger Guess I'm going to be doing a lot of running over the next few weeks Them's the breaks sometimes. Just gotta roll with it really. And , being a triathlete one can still run, that's the beauty of multisport So long you running and keeping fit all will be good. Take the time needed to recover and go for it. Good luck Jehosefat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted January 7, 2020 Share Surprised you can run if you cannot sit comfortably on the IDT. Heal up well, still plenty of time to recover and train before Durbs. See you at the start line! Just a matter of 3 weeks to Dubai to get out of the way first Edited January 7, 2020 by shaper Jehosefat and fanievb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanievb Posted January 8, 2020 Share How did the training go in Bloem over the holidays? didn't get around to swimming had a good few rides with Vetseun (Woodlands, Wit Hekke x2) Running was lekker as I got to run with my wife for a change (ouma loved babysitting) Wil6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil6 Posted January 8, 2020 Share I'm in the market for a new Tri Watch. I currently have the Suunto Spartan trainer, but was really disappointed in the watch from the start. Very inaccurate swimming stats, Suunto's training software is borderline useless and can't upload training programs in the watch. So I need something that can help me towards my first Full IM. The new Garmin 945 and has caught my eye, also the Fenix 6 Pro. The Polar Vantage V also looks like a solid watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurns Posted January 8, 2020 Share Doing first triathlon - 70.3 Durban. Please can you give me some advise re trisuit? Thank youGo with a one piece sleeved suit, it's the safer option. Practice wearing it in training, don't wait for the big day to use it for the first time. Troi Sport and Roguemeister 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daily watch, health tracker and 12hrs+ a week training. OHR works fine for me so don't uses a HR strap anymore During Tri's is just the watch and connects to all sensors, PM/Cadence etc. Sensor connectivity is much better than the F5 that I replaced it with. Ediit: Open water swim tracking is decent. Edited January 8, 2020 by shaper Wil6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
