Numbers you can trust on a run that starts before the sun does

Where the Thursday time trial has started since 2009

Kadans has been on Main Road in Newlands since 2009, half a block from where the Thursday evening time trial forms up, and most of what we stock was chosen because somebody behind the counter wore it up the contour path first. Between the four of us we have logged something like ninety thousand kilometres in this suburb, which is the only reason we can tell you which watch loses the signal under the trees at Rondebosch Common and which one does not. We will set your zones off a real threshold test instead of guessing them off two hundred and twenty minus your age, we will show you what a heart rate of one hundred and fifty-two actually means for your easy runs, and we will tell you straight when a watch claiming forty hours of battery gives you eleven with the screen on and the music playing.
