Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Maybe I should go do the 10km as warmup for the day after
Trubie Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Maybe I should go do the 10km as warmup for the day after I have a better idea for youI'll come to you on satYou pay me R 40, and I 'll give you a race for your money over 10 k's I will be in the car though
Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Duathlon on Sunday, so no 'racing' on Saturday Sorreeee Maybe an easy spin in the gym then
Slave Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 Can I hang out of the window holding up an energade / powerade as the proverbial carrot on the stick? Ox, that's a helluva long way to go to ride 10 k's dude. If you stay home, you can ride 20 or more just in the time it would take you to travel to the mealie curtain. IMNAAHO, stay home, ride 40 and save the bucks.
Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 You can always join me for a brick session on 15 Aug ... two hours of 10km cycle (race pace), 2km run (this maybe at 5:30/km?) - no rest inbetween thoug.... Might turn into a retching session after 1 hour.. but will try for 2

Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Doing brick sessions will fit in better with my overall goals ... Might do SBR once or twice in Sep / Oct ... Still 2 (maybe 3) duathlons to do during this years First need to get used to this run/cycle thing. To run so I can cycle has not harmed my cycling so far - might not have done a lot for it, but did not harm it!

[/quote'] goals we need a lot of, especially with World Cup coming up, otherwise we wont survive round one good on you Oxkeep on scoring them goals
Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 No soccor ball goals on my horizon However if all works out well, I might reach my goal round about the same time as what the goals will be scored Need to up the stamina/endurance - speed is good enough for now.
NotSoBigBen Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Ah my brick training days back when I did Iron Man, sommer a quick 30k on the bike with those neon orange running shorts and a FNB cotton running vest and then off, put on the takkies and go for an 8k run. No one cared if you wore a helmet (just wore one of those real Iron Man pink/blue cyclist lookin hats) or greeted other riders or stopped at robots ...... And before Littleben says anything yes we did walk to school barefoot in the snow uphill both ways

How about the regulars (I refer to regular posters on the threads - not regular as in what you do by 6 on the loo every am) on this thread state our training/racing goals for the next couple months - maybe 5 untill end Dec, or 6/12We get Ox to keep the records and to be the judge, loser/s pays for the lunch anyone?

Would do a bike ride in morning, track intervals in pm around lunchtime and gym session just to make sure it was a well balanced day.there was no one else to greet, I didn't like the orange , preffered the bright yellow/green, can't remember whether Alberton had robots at the time Could run a decent 33 min on a 10 k way back then. Now I battle to do that on the bike
Guest Agteros Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Trubie, jy't die boompie geplant, so jy gee hom water If the others want to share, you can be the record keeper.

I just thought you look much more organized and on par with record keepingbut I'll do it, that way I will never have to pay for the lunch
Slave Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 "k guys, sorry to interrupt you chit chat about training. With all the bike jackings going on on the steps, and my sudden aversion to cold, I would like to know if anyone wants to get a group ride going from Rietvlei from about 8 am on Sat and Sunday mornings. It is still too cold for me for 07h30 (yeah, still in thereap after the WWRR at minus 4 degrees.) and I haven't done the loop for ages. It's imprtant that we have a group together going up the steps.
