Late Weekly Photos - Of a different kind!

Been in Malaysia, so here are some pics! Isnt my boy cute :) Went diving a couple times, parasailing, Damo golfing, ate some amazing food and generally had an awesome time.

Glad to be back into it though, miss training hard. But the rest was good considering I will start comp prep in about 4 weeks.

Hope everyones having a good boxing day!

Weekends Training Pictures and More Time than I Thought!

Ok, so comp is in mid April (Jethros birthday to be exact), heaps of time! I wont start comp diet til end of Jan now. I was actually looking forward to getting stuck into a comp diet, don't know why :)?? hhaha, suppose I am a pretty committed eater already, I plan it and then I eat it, I eat my proteins/fats/ carbs the best way for me, the way my body likes it. Suppose the thought of a comp diet doesnt scare me anymore, why should it? You only feel deprived if you let yourself feel deprived.

A few obsticales this week, but you know what? I would rather hobble around the block injured at 5.30am and enjoy the beautiful summer morning (as much as I would prefer to be running), than be some lazy f**k in bed sleeping their life away. All is better now, I did my exercises and kept moving! Injuries are always used as an excuse to do nothing, when sometimes movement will aid recovery. I could have easily made excuses this week, but thats just not me.

You want this?

Well then you better start being consistent. You better stop making excuses. Continually disheartened by people making excuses that just don't sit in my book!

You want to know what I do, I spend MY time telling you, I do it because I am passionate. Why do you tell me you can't?

I ask questions DAILY, hourly even, I believe it is the best way to learn. I don't write something off until I try it. Ok, I challenge any Sandgroper who believes they can't, to spend a week with me.

Ok, I am finished with that rant!

I had an apiphany courtisy of my belovered training partner. Whom I also have the occasional strangest dejavu with, but anyway, because of this apiphany I may be using this blog solely for recording my comp progress on a weekly basis, I can give you nothing else! I have so much to give, I just can't share it in this type of media form.

So, the comp is either the 27th March or 3rd April (still not confirmed)... Still planning comp prep 12 weeks out which is early next year. I will be updating my blog weekly, I will start this weekend (although not in comp prep yet) with pictures (remember your camera training buddy:) hha) and general weekly stuff eg. how I'm feeling (yes I have feelings!) etc etc. Hoping you guys will follow me there :)

On another note, I got stung by my first bee on Wednesday night riding to the gym.... I got stung in the chest on chest night!! Didnt hinder my training cause I didnt let it.
