Review written by Robyn Williams. I first used Cytomax when I was a swimmer at school. Back in the day swimmers didn’t use many nutrition products. I think I drank Oros when I trained (soft stuff like this was probably frowned upon by my hardcore Hungarian coach) and only used a carbohydrate drink during competitions. So my big tub ...

I love swimming. I was born to swim and I’ve spent 18 of my 25 years doing it. I also blame the fact that I am a bit socially inept on the fact that my head was always under water during my school years. My mom took me to my first coach, Brian Button, at the age of 7. I ...

In the week leading up to the start of AfricanX on Friday 13 March, participants were asked to tweet the three things that they wouldn’t be able to go without at the race. This was my response: How prophetic it would prove to be. I was supposed to do the race with my mom. It would either be a super ...

My Totalsports Xterra Grabouw race didn’t go as planned and that is why I am going to make a point of writing about it. I don’t think I’ve had to write about a bad race yet, but the truth is that they happen so I am not going to shy away from it. This race was actually a huge disappointment, ...

Xterra. The word almost makes me quiver. One does not earn the title “Xterra Warrior” easily. Xterra is renowned for being brutally tough and the Grabouw route is no exception.

It’s February in Grabouw. Hydrate well. Again, it’s February in Grabouw. What says “I love you” more than supporting your significant other at a swimming ...

It had been a mad few weeks of almost non-stop racing, but the race that I was looking forward to the most was the last one on the calendar – the Pennypinchers Origin of Trails (POOT) in Stellenbosch. This would be my first two day MTB stage thingy and I was really looking forward to the challenge. Firstly, I haven’t ...

Slanghoek is one of the races on the local calendar that ALL Cape triathletes look forward to. You need to enter as soon as entries open or you might miss out. Slanghoek is sold out every year. Usually the road and the MTB tri are held on the same day, but with so many athletes wanting to race and a ...

The past weekend saw athletes fly in from as far as Port Elizabeth and Durban for the Slanghoek Triathlon on the weekend of 25 and 26 October. Iqela Events owner, Pieter du Plessis changed the weekend arrangements from the previous years by making it a two day triathlon festival with the mountain biking long and short course on the Saturday ...
