This is a journal of my journey to the 2012 London Olympics. The highs, the lows, the good times, the bad times, the fast times and the not so fast (slow) times. The new challenges that lay ahead and the people around me during those times are the enjoyable things I look forward to.

Thursday, December 16, 2010

It's been a while since my last post..... just after Beijing actually. Well I did enjoy my 2009 year off, put on a nice amount of weight (15kg's!) and got extremely unfit. I must say, I hated it. I did enjoy getting fit again though.

2010 was a bit of an ordinary year with Sam Conrad, who I was rowing a pair with, getting injured which put us out of the team for the Worlds in NZ. I was relegated to the single which.....lets say I'm glad its over! Im not a single sculler any more.

2011 season is something I'm looking forward to. Its great to see Drew back in traing now for his assult on London and it looks like Sam is back in action aswell, both doing well and training solid. As for me, I started training at the end of November for about a week, then I went on holidays and injured my back and still working out what's wrong with it. I'd like to think ints getting better. Anyway, had my first erg session today to see how it went. It was just a 20 min piece, and to no suprise have a long way to go!
