Cycling update, coundown to Road Nationals, October 21st-24th

Training is going very well for the TT and road race for Road Nationals in Nelson on the 21st and 22nd October. I am 5 weeks out from the event and am feeling very good about my cycling right now, my cycling coach is taking my cycling programme on a two week cycle, giving me work to do stepping up the intensity each fortnight.

The result is I am getting stronger each fortnight and will peak on the 21st & 22nd of October which is what I need.

Watch this space...

Swim progress, new coach, Grant Campbell,

Well things have moved forward quickly since I ran the 5 bridges marathon on different fronts. My podiatrist, Rob McGregor has ordered me off running for 6-8 weeks, so that's that.
It does however allow me to focus on my swim with my new coach, Grant Campbell . When I left my previous coach I was a bit nervous about being under a new coach but we have made huge progress in the 3 weeks e have been together

I will see michi next Sunday, I think she will be very surprised and pleased with the progress.
