Attention Cyclists and Runners of Durban

This coming SUNDAY the M4 northbound lane is closed for the Reclam IQEMBU CYCLE CHALLENGE (from Argyle through to the top of the road split after the La Lucia Mall off-ramp)

If you are not entered into the race - please do not use the M4 closed-to-traffic freeway stretch to "train" on while the race is in progress. You are most welcome to join the M4 from Umhlanga onwards and proceed with your normal Sunday cycles

Same rule applies to the runners in Durban - the northbound lane is closed for cycle use only - please do not come and run train on the same side as the cyclists - we only have 1-side for the race and the road cannot accommodate runners as well who want to run while the cycle race is happening. There are a thousand other roads you can run on (Kentucky and Fairways run alongside the route so there is no excuse to come run on the M4 while the cycle race is taking place

Please pass the onto the cycling and running community - it happens every single time - please stay off the road that is to be used for the cycle event if you have not entered into it

this is for the safety of those that have entered into the race

Thanks in advance

Just when you thought they had pushed limits with running shoe tech - along come PUMA

On its mission to rewrite the rules of speed, PUMA is defying all limits with the unveiling of the highly anticipated Fast RB NITRO™ Elite featuring rule-breaking (RB) innovation, cutting-edge technology, and radical design features.

• Fast RB NITRO™ Elite features three Carbon PWRPLATEs and a 58mm stack height for powerful propulsion, maximum bounce, and speed
• Fast RB NITRO™ Elite launches globally on 28 August 2024 with only 1 000 pairs available worldwide (limited pairs available in South Africa early 2025, pricing to be confirmed)

With an unapologetically, unconventional aesthetic, Fast RB NITRO™ Elite is packed with a mind-blowing 58mm of NITROFOAM™ Elite – PUMA’s most advanced foam technology. And at 18mm above regulations, it offers a cheat code of cushion and responsiveness that releases a confidence in runners they’re yet to experience.

Romain Girard, Head of Innovation Design at PUMA said: "Our elite race day running shoes are often confided to work within the rules, but with Fast RB NITRO™ Elite, we asked the question: what if we pushed running technology as far as we can? This is not just a running shoe; it's a statement. Proof of our intent to not only be the fastest brand in the world, but the most innovative

Only race days count. Far too many athletes end up racing all their training sessions. Strava segments count for zip on race days when only the overall results matter. You train to race don’t race to train. The best athletes train smarter, be that athlete ✅

Coach says “do this” Athlete does that. Coach says “do this it works, I will show you” athlete does that. Athlete races badly “I need a new coach” 🤷‍♂️🤣
