Training, training, training.

Training, training, training.

And it is cold.

We go to France on Aug 5 for world champs. Sad thing is we have to train HERE on the other side of the world. Boy it is getting cold. We've been pretty lucky so far and we still have a month of training- so fingers crossed it will be alright.

Coach (Alfie) has put the miles up. And my weights trainer (Matt) has increased weight and volume. I am getting tired every day, and have taken friday off work. I guess I really want this dream now. No point giving it a half-assed effort. I may as well go the whole way. Annaliisa is putting in heaps too, and I really want to make her proud of me. We have started track as of last sunday and are going to Inver this weekend to use the valedrome. When we are up here Hamish Ferguson is going to be coaching us on the weekends we are up here, so that will be good.

Mine and Annaliisa's pet event is the pursuit. That is what I hope to do best at. But I still want to give eve3rything else a go too. You never know what could happen on the day!

But since we don't live in Inver, we have ti cincentrate on getting the niles in the legs. I am getting very excited to race in France! I am excited at the week I will get off after the comp too!

I will keep you filled in with training.
Right now it feels like all I do apart from work...
