JK7 Posted May 22, 2021 Share How'd you find the ride? Nearly all the climbing came at the end which made it tough. And the descents were rocky, so no let off. I really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W@nted Posted May 22, 2021 Share What a great race. Second half of the marathon was brutal. Many started too fast (including me). Saw a few nasty crashes, those descends were nice and technical???????? i was overdressed, should have left the base layer and arm warmers... Great event????????

JulienR Posted May 22, 2021 Share Great event. Well organisation. The descents were technical and some of the climbs were brutal and long...but great overall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bru Posted May 22, 2021 Share Had a really lekker ride. Difficult one to pace though. Didn't wanna overcook the first 35km, but also wanted to pass a load of guys before things went uphill. And then didn't want to overcook the climbs but had decent legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCA12 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Ja really enjoyed it. Was my first Marathon level race (longest up to now has been 50k) so took it easy early on to save the legs for the second half. Struggled on the last 2 climbs but managed to get up them all without having to walk. Really enjoyed the technical sections (much more fun than the half marathon races). Now for the Monster in 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
