Completed the Barberton Ultra as well yesterday. Those climbs just never stopped!! But was a very awesome route!
Some idea on the scale of the race - this is the Barberton route vs Magalies Monster -

Hey Leeann - I export the GPX files to Excel, work out the incremental distances from the lat-long coords with a projection coorection factor, then recalc the elevation as a function of the start point, and bam you just plot two graphs in Excel.

My training was going well until last week Friday. Had to fly to Oz on saturday for work and only landed back in SA a couple of hours ago. I guess I'll know tomorrow how jet lag and an ultra go together...
Anyone doing the half on Sunday as well?
