Managed to do a comrades at home over 4 days
Friday - 20km
Saturday - 20km
Sunday - 40km
Yesterday - a very very slow and sore yet determined 10km
I had to do 6 steps many 1000's of times they became the bane of my existence, my dogs and neighbors think I'm mad but its done.
Anyone know if we are actually allowed to run out in the wild again on Friday?

I think the details of what type of exercise will be allowed will be released today.
Fantastic run
Can't see how you can apply strict public health conditions to running. Unless it means jogging with a mask and only at a certain time?

Yeah I'm not sure but going to order a few of these https://runzone.co.za/product/face-mask-run-zone-logo/ if I can run and they abide by the running PPE or whatever the governments makes up.
They seem pretty good quality and being able to wash/reuse, its just going to be strange training in an altitude mask but it should increase performance after lockdown.
Dunno hey. Jury is out on the those elevation masks and performance although although I've never tried it myself.

I'll continue for a while at home before taking to the road. Normal wearing of that thing is unpleasant as it is. Can't see how I'll manage running with one.
I'm going to take my mask with, if I see a lot of people without then I'll go without too - otherwise I'll just put it on.

Went for 7k this morning. Wearing a mask makes my glasses steam up but still totally worth it - maybe it'll help improve VO2 Max or something 
Autumn weather like to today is my favourite time of year for running and my pace was much better than running circuits round the garden.

our suburb was like people have never seen sun before, whole families walking, even those that clearly haven't climbed off the couch in 20 years. most people with no masks etc. i don't really agree with people needing to wear a mask to go for a jog, but if hoards of people will be out then maybe not the worst idea in the world.
i just jog with my buff so i dont get called out by a karen

I didn't have a mask on. Didn't think it would be comfortable while running

Yeah I'm not used to running with so many obstacles
.I run with the buff around my neck and when I go past people I pull it up. I think the rules are to have anything around your mouth/nose even a jersey as Mrs Zuma said.
