lurkerza Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Did anyone else get the email about the error on the finisher shirts?
shaper Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Did anyone else get the email about the error on the finisher shirts?Yep, so looks like we will get 2... one they will hand out with "team" on it and the corrected one at the end of February
EmJayZA Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Yep, so looks like we will get 2... one they will hand out with "team" on it and the corrected one at the end of February Yeah. I am not holding my breath. Mailing out thousands of shirts by the end of February? A little salty about it, as it's my first, and don't want a shirt with "team" on it. And are they using SAPO? If so, that means we will never get our shirts. Also, cannot seem to find a place to edit my postal address on ironman.com, or easyreg.co.za...
lurkerza Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Yea i can't seem to get onto the ironman login page from my work pc, so will have to hope that the address they have is correct. I have received my ironman magazines to my postal address so it should be correct!
Jakopregop Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Hope all of you are tapering well and keeping clear of illness. Had a realization on my ride yesterday. With work giving me a super taper of 3 weeks, I decided to start IMSA 12 week training this week Sunday will be a 6hr brick session
shaper Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Looks like the wind is dropping https://www.yr.no/place/South_Africa/Eastern_Cape/East_London/long.html Pretty much the norm for EL, damp on the cycle and then the sun will come out for a hot and humid run!!

I hope for your sake the wind drops, the past few weekends have been hectic.

Cycling Major Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Whooop Whooop its race week... Had a bit of an injury over the weekend with the run. Nursing the leg hard so will see what it feels like tomorrow. Heading down on Wednesday already. Must say cannot wait to get a Friesland Milkshake in for good luck

EmJayZA Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 What do you guys do for taper this week? I did a 1.9sea swim yesterday.. but feel like chilling now for this week and taper good Easy threshold run today (3 x 1km, 4 x 500m)Tonight an aerobic endurance swim with a few threshold laps Tomorrow a 50min Wattbike with 4 x intervals at 105% of FTPThursday a 45 minute Fartlek (a few 1 minute repeats at threshold)Saturday a 20 minute swim and run I had to hold back today as my legs felt fresh.
Stevo9119 Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Very excited for my first one. Had a problem yesterday with wetsuit, got a little tear on the shoulder. Phoned Xterra Wetsuits and they quickly sorted me out. Wetsuit will be in East London before me. Great service.

This is very scientific sounding.. is this your own program or a coach written one?
