State Penthalon

Extremely happy with my penthalon and the Gold Medal. I now hold the record for our club but it is the State record that is now my challenge. I have 4 more years in this age group to try and break it. I only PB'd in one event which surprisingly was the 200m and that was with no start training at all. I have not done any block training since doing my back in and now just do a standing start. I will post pictures soon.
My next major comp is the Qld Championships 8 March in Brisbane and then the Nationals in Sydney 21-24 March. That is the end of the athletics season. There is however the Oceania Championships in Townsville in July but I haven't decided if I will do that one yet. Oh almost forgot about the Pan Pacs in November. At least they are on the Gold Coast and at my home track so not too much of a problem and I always look at them as a bit of fun.
So this year is pretty much full on.

I was sooo tired when I got home yesterday. With the trip to Brisbane, and competing in the heat, it just really drains me of all energy. I was in bed by 7.30 last night. I trained today but just a few of 250 run throughs and then I did throwing. I was home by 10am but felt totally exausted again. Had a nap which helped.
It was a "wet weekend" here. Not rain wise, but they lifted the water restrictions for the weekend so gave my extremely dirty car a good wash.
That was my weekend and still have another free day tomorrow which I am looking forward to.

Congratulations - you are a winner. Well done - achieving what you have achieved is 10 times harder than doing a figure comp. You will be on that stage before we know it :)
BE GOOD AND LIVE WITH PASSION
