EQC Work.

The last couple of weeks have been very busy, with all the storms of late we've been involved with assessing the damage. The work is very interesting, always good to see landslides and to see why they slide etc. I was hoping to get into some structured training but that got delayed a week.

I had a pretty good week of training last week, 3 bikes a couple of kayaks and plenty of runs. My left ITB has been real tight, and Liz Stroud (as osteo in Nelson) has been helping me with that. She really does have healing hands!

First of 3 or 4 articles was published in the Nelson Mail on Friday.

I'm looking for sponsorship for Coast entry fee. Its more expensive every year, a very good business me thinks.

Have mum and dad coming down this weekend, looking forward to having them. Mums keen to go to the market, so we may send her and Elin off to that, and I might take dad kayaking.

Going to see Richard sometime this week about setting up a program. I've got a pretty good idea of how to build a good base, but it gives me more confidence having some help from someone who knows a thing or two. I think its going to be important to make every session count.

Saw Ben Fouhy on tv being interviewed after finishing well behind Adam VK in the K1. He really didnt look or sound good, its always a pity to see some one in peak condition not bringing it together mentally. I struggle with racing positvely and being relaxed, so I can relate. Self belief and relaxation are two powerful things!
