Not much has been happening and nothing exciting to report as I have not been racing but I am working on it and will report on the XC race at Beaconsfield on the 19th of December. In the meantime here is a little update on what I have been doing the last few months, well I have been riding a lot, well a lot compared to what I was riding, have completed my studies for the year and now have a couple of months to concentrate on training for the Otway Odyssey. I was struggling with my training and lacking some motivation and direction so I enlisted the help of Fenner's Total Performance Training http://www.ftptraining.com/ I met mark Mark Fenner a couple of years back and had a good chat to him over a burger when he was in Richmond giving a talk at the Specialized store, he really knows his stuff and finally now I have made the move to have a training program set up for me. So I have an initial 12 week training program now which will see me though to the Otway Odyssey, it is mainly working on building my base fitness again after so long out of structured training and set me up for the next year and the 11/12 XC Season. I am actually looking forward to starting the program next week and hopefully now I will start seeing some improvement in my fitness and strength and will give me more motivation to keep up with it. It will be a pretty full on 3 months for me but will be well worth it.
Until next time happy trails!
