Been a while

Yes its been a while since I posted something but I have lots of excuses honest !

Anyway last weekend saw us at Noosa for the Noosa triathlon, I was in a team doing the ride with a mate doing the run and swim. Spent Saturday having a look around the expo there and buying some new gear which is always on sale there. Also enjoyed watching the elite womens and criterium around the circuit. A little disappointed there was less attacking than normal in both races but then I guess that is racing.

Sunday was race day an I had been feeling really flat the days before so was concerned about how I would go. My mate did an amazing swim and we were top twenty after his effort. On to the bike for me and I figured I best go as hard as I can and worry later about blowing up. Like everyone I guess I let my mind tell my body how hard it can go so my mind limits me sometimes. I had a great ride 1hr 7 mins rack to rack. By this stage it was thirty degrees and the humidity was massive. When I came back in to transition we were still top 20.

My runner set out and we ended up 37th overall in our category which we were stoked about. Now the goals are to do better at Mooloolaba and I will have to get myself some tri bars before then as 40k riding in the drops was not great fun.
