Happenings

Well, a lot has happened since my last post. I am now in Australia, the land down under.

Before I left, I had a farewell jam and party, which was immensely fun. We had a hog roast and bouncy castle at my house, which provided an awesome tricking session. By the end of the night though, it was a quite upsetting. Some people came and visited later in the week, which was nice, but then I had to say farewell again. Needless to say, I miss everyone very, very much. It's weird making new friends, but still keeping in touch with old ones. Training with different people in different locations takes a bit of getting used to, but it's all about adaption.

I have been to Sydney for training twice since arriving. It is about 1.5 hours on the train, so not too bad. There is a local town near me which is pretty good too. I am going to Sydney on Saturday, then the local town on Sunday. Will be my first full training weekend for a while. I injured my knee, I think doing an arm jump involving me turning in the air. It's better now though, took a few weeks to heal.

I ran 14 kilometres last weekend, in the City2Surf race. It was great fun, hot, tiring and exhilirating. I ran with my dad and our friend Tony. We finished it in 1hour30mins, so a good time, but with lots of room to improve next year. Asics are pretty much dead now.

Its late over here now, still need to change the times around on this thing. When I move into my new house I'll take some pictures of it, and the training area nearby. It is pretty good, and so near to my house. Cant wait.

Anyways, off to bed, still aching from Sunday's run.
