This has to be one of our favorite races on the calendar. With online entries, goodie bags, pre race give aways there was a great build up to the weekends activities. With all the hype built up race day did not disappoint.
Cape Town Marathon 12km Peace Trail was my first official trail in 2016. I remember the nerves
and excitement for the unknown that was ahead. For some reason this year, I had the same
feelings on the start line despite having done the race before.
Instead of one long post about my first marathon I have decided to do a series of short informative pieces
After a relatively late start to the morning (7am) we started our road trip to Franschoek. Okay, it’s not that far from Cape Town but when you live in the southern suburbs traveling for more than 30 minutes to do something is considered a road trip so pack the padkos.
Some of you may have noticed a weirdly shaped bike in our office or seen photos of a strange machine online called the Grucox. Well in this post we will be telling you what it’s all about and who should be using it to help boost their training or help speed up their recovery!
Welcome to my online training journal where I will be sharing my experience of training for my first Marathon
What you can; when you can; where you can – no equipment needed
While planning my first ever overseas trip I didn’t, for a second, consider how I’d stay fit while I was travelling. My thoughts were focused on the amazing places I’d see and the epic adventures I’d have while I was away. Little did I know that I’d be maintaining my fitness throughout my two week holiday.
I was asked to write about this part of my travels so here goes!
Instagram is probably the worst place to be when you’re hungry after a tough workout. Some how everything looks way too delicious and like a mission to make but sometimes its actually way easier than it looks.
Yesterday for some Sunday Funday we braved the cold, rain and flooded roads for something a little different. Over the last few months I have helped out with health screening for two different fit for hajj programmes. It is a journey which is not only spiritual but also physically challenging.
