It has now been a good few weeks of consistently hard training, swimming with the Ducks, Swans and riding with the windmills. Did you know they were used for bakeries! I am now racing a 'test' event this weekend, in the German Champs, off no taper and feeling pretty dead.. all part of the planning going to the land of eating ducks (maybe dogs too), their speciality in Beijing.
I have been really fortunate to get a lot of help from Adrie Berk, the Dutch Triathlon Manager for the Games, with a load of administrative info that would probably be lost there without it! Thank you very much! On Mon we are off for a pre-Games acclimatisation camp in Soouth Korea then head into the Olympic Village on Aug 12th, so unfortunately I wont be at the opening ceremony, but definitely the closing!
Pic attached is a great present for the Games from Shimano.... need i say more about it, have a look!
