What to do now
The deadline changes the job.
The official listing spans three days at CTICC. Confirm the day on your ticket and make the final rehearsal match the decisions you will make on that day.
Current phase: Build durable aerobic work, clean movement patterns, and a limiter baseline before adding more simulation for Cape Town.
Current phase: Raise compromised running capacity and station repeatability around the limiter you can prove for Cape Town.
Current phase: Increase race specificity for Cape Town. Rehearse pacing, transitions, standards, and recovery without turning every session into a race.
Under four weeks: Finish the last meaningful race-specific exposure now. Do not chase a new engine. Protect sleep, familiar movement quality, pacing discipline, and recovery. Open Race Rescue.
Current phase: Race week is execution. Keep kit, fuel, pacing, warm-up, and movement cues familiar.
Race complete: The event has passed. Capture what failed under fatigue, recover, and use that evidence to rebuild. Run the post-race review and then open the latest announced South Africa race plans.
Date TBC: The event date is not available. Start with base work and limiter proof so the eventual deadline does not force a rushed build.

Build splits your limiter can survive.
Set the total target, inspect each run and station, then compare the plan with what your training can actually repeat under fatigue. The calculator stays shared, so improvements reach every race page.
