State of Play...
Thanks Tim Smile

I have a specific target in mind - the Two Oceans in Cape Town ('07). It fits your bill in as much as it goes from A to B over 52 k, albeit in a monstrous circle. The location is about as good as it gets - running in the shadow of Table Mountain, down and across the Cape Peninsular and back up Chapman's Peake, through the wine region of Constantia and back to Newlands.

I have a sneaking suspicion this is predominantly a road race, so it scores low there. My thinking is that I need to select a race (or I should say event - 'race' seems a little aspirational at this point) to shoot for that exceeds the 26.2, probably sometime in January/ February ’07.

I too like the off road trails. I enjoyed running with the Hash in Hong Kong, and all my training’s on mud, hills or flint paths. Thanks for the links chaps; I’ll have a shufty and may seek further advice if anything looks good.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
