Australia here we come...

Wiw, now I really know what it feels like to be an athlete. I am tired both physically and mentally, and yet still so driven. We are going to compete in the Aussie track champs on the 5 Feb. We have been doing a lot of track riding, but I wish we could be doing more. I love track. It is so fast and exciting. You give it your all on a short time. I really love riding track with Annaliisa. We have been riding track as much as we can which has been really fun.

There is a lot more than training to think about though. There is a lot of paperwork to get sorted as well, and tings to come to terms with. I guess this competition is part of our qualification for worlds and that puts a bit of pressure on me. I guess Annaliisa and I can do no more than our best though, so that's what we will do.

I'm excited, yet nervous at the same time as I am sure most competitors are before a big competotopn. I hope we do well and that we feel good on the day. But anything will happen so I do not have any huge expectations exceot to go out there and have some fun.

I hope to write and tell you how we are going in Australia. It will be an amazing competition as it is HUGE with many Australian track athletes!

So it will definately be an experience.
