Youβre both right. I think what Sethaβs trying to say is that sub 3 is more glamorised in SA than internationally. In SA youβre seen as an elite/sub elite whereas internationally youβre on the fast end, but not yet seen as elite of any sortβ¦

I don`t quite have the words for it but the biggest factor could be our heavy bias towards Comrades.

Their routes are very flat and they donβt have many ultras so their focus is almost always to improve their 42k time

Garmin says its runners average 9:21/mile for men and 10:11/mile for women.
Then I scroll Strava and see somebody calling 7:30 pace "recovery."
What's your actual easy pace? The one where you can talk without gasping.

There's so much potential and very talented athletes, our problem is that almost everything is centered around those two Ultras, if you wanna dominate short to medium distance profiles you gotta stay far away from those Ultras
Sub-3-hour marathons among international men and sub-3:30-hour marathons among the women seem to be almost the norm, and are achieved with relative ease. Does this mean that, as South Africans, we are simply slower, or do our conditions make it more hard to run these times?
Ehhh ? Lucky is a top top runner yazi π€―π₯. This is amazing dude
I drank on Saturday and sunday , had thee best time but I gotta be honest man, the recovery is not worth it. I feel abit better today but Iβm not fully recovered.hhayiiiii
