I am back home now after a tough past month of training and racing, but my season is now finished now and I’m really excited to relax and recover after my best ever year.
Since my last blog it all started to slip through my fingers a bit! Â I picked up a bit of a niggles [...]

Just got home from London. Â What a fantastic weekend.
14th wasn’t the result I was hoping for but I’m happy with my effort. Â I was 3rd best Brit which I’m happier with as it hopefully looks favourably towards me with the Olympic selectors. Â To be honest the race didn’t suit me yesterday, It’s not how I’ve [...]

Hello everyone. Â I just got back to Loughborough after a longer then necessary days travel! Â Phew I’m tired and my legs are way sore! Let’s not waste any time though, every day counts and it’s back to the grind but this time with heaps of motivation after a wicked weekend in Kitzbuhel!
What a difference to [...]

I had a lot of fun this weekend in Madrid. It was good to be back on tour with the GB gang and I spent some good time with the team and also some good friends from other countries!
It’s the 6th time I’ve been to Madrid. Same course, (It’s still bloody difficult) the same Italian [...]

It’s been a decent week…I’ve actually turned the DVD played off finally and I’ve been getting the blood flowing with some yogging…or it might be Jogging?!  It feels so nice to be out there amongst the clouds and mud.  I’m not feeling too bad so far which is crazy!  I’m even envisaging winning again and I’m [...]

That’s a big few races done and done. I’m pretty happy with my result in Des Moines today. I wanted to make up for a bad result in Madrid and thankfully I redeemed myself.
‘My team’ sent me the analysis from Madrid. I found it really useful and soon found out that the problem was I [...]

It’s been a great week over here in Des Moines.
Our awesome homestay hosts Kerrie and Jason have gone well overboard to make us feel very welcome.  I feel so relaxed leading into the weekend that I could be racing in at home! It’s certainly a far cry from the usual waiting game based in a [...]

I just arrived in Madrid. Probably the road trip that I have most been looking forward to. After this battle I will be heading directly to Des Moines for the big money race. Madrid is my priority though…I will give all I have here and then for Des Moines I will give what I have [...]

Well, not been up to much to be honest!
We had a couple of nights out in Gold Coast after the race, both were awesome and it was fantastic to go out and relax with all the guys who I race week in, week out. It was a nightclub full of lightweights!
We chilled out on Saturday [...]

Hey gang.
2 days out from the race now…still feels like a long time! To be honest, its been pretty boring the past few days! I can’t wait to get this one ticked off. Â I don’t know what the forms like, I have completely forgotten about the cracking block of training I completed almost two weeks [...]

Well yesterday saw the end to my 10 day block, and my last hard block of the year!
This training block couldn’t have gone better. I managed to back up hard session after hard session and now I feel ready to smoke it at the Worlds. Â My swimming and running are going especially well which is [...]

I pulled up from London pretty well in the end.
One of my competitors and friends Clark Ellice is down from New Zealand, he’s a good athlete and were getting our heads stuck into this last block of training for just one more hard week this year and it’s gone really well so far. I think [...]

London was an interesting race at the weekend. I rocked in 15th so obviously nothing to be proud of!
The swim was really fast this week, probably the fastest I have ever seen it. Â It split up so quickly at the front I couldn’t believe it! Hence a good group of fast swimmers got away with [...]

It’s been a good week really. Â Been a bit tired at times, but London didn’t massively bite me in the ass like it should have and races normally do!
You can’t lose much fitness but you could gain a bit in 2 weeks so thats what I have been doing ahead of the London World Championships [...]
