So #NoosaTri35 came and went in 2017 just like that! If you missed it, you must live under a rock! It flooded the social media post for at least a whole week and probably still is to be honest! I absolutely love this weekend and event, it holds a special little place in my heart! … Continue reading The 1… the only… The Noosa Tri – My musings!
So October was a solid month and continuing on from the September re-framing and re-focusing on my goals. I continued to manage and try to rehab my lower leg injuries, reasonably well, but at the same time reasonalby unsuccessfully. I did my best and managed to still compete in both races I had booked in, … Continue reading Monthly Review & Reflect – October
So September was about reframing, focusing on what I get to do and appreciating that simple fact 'I get to do this'!

Again this month my training was off, still lacking clear direction (even though I have a very thorough race plan … Continue reading Monthly Review & Reflect – August 2017

My training was off, lacking clear direction (even though I have a very thorough race plan for the rest of 2017 & into 2018), life … Continue reading Monthly Review & Reflect – July 2017

Ive competed in NZ Ironman and then backed up to do Cairns Ironman about 12 weeks apart, both amazing races with some great results and even bigger highlights. Following the Ironman in early June the … Continue reading 2017 Half Way Review!
Discipline. I look at discipline as ones ability to choose to do something / act a certain way or behave in a certain manner in accordance with your own set of established beliefs or rules! "Training to act in accordance with rules". Consistency. "Constantly adhering to the same principles". I believe this means turning up … Continue reading #disciplinedconsistency
