MERRY CHRISTMAS


Hi all,

Just a quick note to wish you and your families all a very Merry Christmas and the happiest of festive seasons!

I hope that we all finish off 2013 pleased with how things have gone and ready to keep moving forward after the haze settles in the new year. 

Timing of my off season was very unfortunate as I started back in heavy training last week, but thankfully my coach Jon Ackland has found it in his heart to give me a few easy days which I will be enjoying with my family between Waiheke Island and Auckland. 

Early in the New Year I will be racing the Auckland 70.3, this race also doubles as the Asia Pacific Pro Championships. Unfortunately due to the car door incident at the beginning of this year I was unable to be on the start line for the inaugural race but I am determined to make up for it. Then at the beginning of March I will be returning to Nutri-Grain Ironman New Zealand in Taupo. This will be the extent of my New Zealand racing for this season and I am looking forward to another exciting 70.3 campaign in the US and Europe over the summer.

Keep safe and have a great Holiday
