Back blogging

Well after a bit of a break, thought I should post something new, why? I'm not to sure to be honest....anywhooo, enough of this awkwardness!!

So last time I posted I was injured and sick, well that lasted for about 3 weeks, not good, but that's life. I had a good rest I guess, and now I am back into it. I've had some good progress

Back in the pool swimming way too much and making some good, millisecond, gradual improvements (it always seems to be the way with swimming for me), but I'm feeling better and better and making gains where needed.

On the riding front, I am riding more than ever and feeling better and better every day. Riding old papas every Thursday morning is doing wonders (now I am no longer getting dropped) and coupling that with road racing on saturdays is doing wonders. I've had a couple of victories at road racing and come close in a few more instances. My view is I go there to work (and not sit in the pack) and it's really improving my abilities ten fold.

Finally the running is going surprisingly well. I've actually been doing a minimal amount of running but that didn't show at last weeks city to surf half marathon where I ran a 1.19. I was super pleasantly surprised with this and it gave me a heap of confidence.

I'm also smashing out some good gym and core workouts and I can honestly feel the difference in all of my disciplines.

As for what's up next, well I have the Fremantle half in a couple of weeks, continued road racing, and it's time to start the wetty swims. Port Mac is 8 weeks (and 1 week taper) away, so things are really getting serious. Love it.

I'm really running through the SiS stuff at the moment and loving it, so thanks again guys!

Hrm this seems to be a no picture blog, that is way to boring...I'll see what I can find...

Gah nothing! Welll 'till next time, which will hopefully be sooner..
