RACE UPDATE

A quick update from the weekend. Good results from PMAS with a 2nd place from Troy Main, 3rd place from Mikala Falconer and a 4th place from Leighton Cook. Strong performance by Troy on the bike putting 40s into me going into T2, only managed to catch him with a 2ks to go on the run. Good news is that I have now wrapped up the Trievents series for 2012.

Looking forward to a big week of racing from the squad at Devonport on the weekend - the squad is in great form and looking forward to big performances from Mikala, Jesse Thyer and Ben Lyons.

BUSSO 2012

I have finally decided on my plans in the lead up to WA's most iconic triathlon event Busselton 70.3.

The plan is relatively simple - follow a similar program to last year, drop a run session and add another bike session with as many k's as possible running off the bike at Busso half marathon pace.

In the lead up to the event, I have finalised my race schedule of which most races, I'll be using as hard hit-outs on the bike, to get stronger in the lead up to the race. Race schedule as follows:

• Trievents Rockingham: 4 March
• Esperance OD State series: 18 March
• Trievents Hillarys: 25 March
• Bibra Lake TT: Good Friday
• State 80K TT: Easter Monday

Ideally, the plan is to get strong enough on the bike so that I am fresh for the run, when the real fun begins :)

SEASON UPDATE

The triathlon season is going very well after a few months of hard training. Updates from the season are as follows:
