| » Final Build Up (04/01/2006) |
Hi all,
I hope you all had a great christmas and I'm wishing you a great '06.
Its time! My first major race of the year is here! It is the Port of Tauranga Half Ironman which doubles as the NZ long distance champs. I've surived christmas and managed to get around all the yummy festive season food and new year partying with out putting on too many kilos.
I couldn't have had a better past 4 weeks of my build up, racing 3 races and taking 3 wins, and I've been lucky enough to have broken the race records in
all three races.
Training has gone to plan (apart from the great Auckland weather), keeping the miles quite high as Ironman NZ is the major goal. i can now sit back and put my feet up in my brand new Lazy Boy and enjoy the next 2 and a half days before the race.
To all my friends, family, the A Team and supporters thank you all for such great support and i look forward to hearing you this weekend!
Bye for now talk again soon,
Doeboy |
