Monthly Report-September
With the morning check of emails, the refresh button was
getting a good working out since the calender rolled over to September as I
awaited the email about the annoucement
of the under 23 Worlds Team for New Zealand. I was pretty excited to make the
team and even better I got to share this with 6 others in Vitoria. The next few
weeks in the lead up to Worlds are Auckland specific sessions getting us ready
for the demands and exceeding the demands that will be thrown at us on race day.
A acronym introduced into our training environment is ICE- intensity, clarity,
execution. Its all about how to perform under pressure and training is the
perfect opportunity to test it out. I am
extremely lucky to train in Wollongong during this time, in an environment that
I am familiar with and can get into a daily routine. Time just flies and with
less than 16 days till race day, the count down is on!
I tell myself I am pretty lucky as last weekend, I was in
Korea and the weekend before that in France and the weekend before that in
Spain. I would finally like to say thank you to everyone that made my 5 month
trip possible. Thanks to NSWIS and Triathlon Australia for the constant support
on the scenes and behind the scenes. Thanks to our service providers in Vitoria
of Alex Price and Michael Barwick for keeping me in top shape day in day out.
Thanks to my sponsors who give me the gear to improve my performance and I am
always happy to support them in anyway they need. My last thank you goes to my
parents for the constant support and loving they give me when I am a million
miles away. Skype definitely has its smiles and tears.
