Australian Youth Olympic Festival build up


So tomorrow is the big day, well one of many big days over the next couple of weeks. I fly out to Sydney tomorrow to compete in the Australian Youth Olympic Festival. Its going to be amazing experience having to live with people from other codes for a change and I cant wait for it! The comp is a good chance for me to see where my form is at leading into nationals which happen to be only 10 days after I arrive home from Sydney.

My Build up has gone really well with my form seeming to be coming right when it should be, which is making me really excited for the coming weeks. I have my coach Murray Grace to thank for that.

We recently had trials for the Auckland team sprint for at the national Champs, the trials went well, it was just a bit of a shame that they happened to be close to Sydney as I couldn't do some of the efforts that the selectors wanted me to do due to my build up but I'm hoping that what I did was enough to get me in.

Thanks to Giles Potter for taking this awesome

I would like to give a big thanks to the team Les Mills Britomart for deciding last week to continue to sponsor me and in doing so helping me to further progress training wise. Without them and their amazing team my build up wouldn't have been      so smooth gym wise

I'll try to keep you all updated on my progress in Sydney as best as I can, but results will be available on the comps website: http://ayof2013.olympics.com.au/results
