With a tough three weeks of training done; tough because of
the howling winds, freezing weather and even some snow. I am glad I managed to
grit my teeth and do the base miles regardless!
My training previously, was higher intensity in preparation
for SA Cross Country champs in July and since then has been more time in the
saddle which has prepared me for the tough Marathon coming up this weekend in
Wellington. I am looking forward to the race as I hear it is very technical,
which is my biggest strength, not to mention loads of fun!!
My trusty, light and fast Team Edition Ghost bike has just
been serviced at Ballistic Bike Trading and is in tip top shape, ready to take
whatever this tough course has to offer!
I am flying down with Yolande Speedy and staying with family
in Cape Town who stay (conveniently) a few km from Tokai Forest. We are
spending a few extra days down there which will be undoubtedly spent exploring
and making the most out of the great trails down there!
My exciting weekend (and some) will of course be recorded
with my Bryton Rider 40, which I have become completely reliant on during and
after my training!
Until then, keep the rubber side down!
Later
