New Find

We all know that music is one of my passions. I listen to EVERYTHING. You would be amazed at some of the stuff I have on my IPOD. lol.

I have to thank my friend and former training partner Jamie Baulch for introducing me to 'Miss A' this evening.

From the first moment I met Jamie we had music as a bond. I had never met some one back in the 90s who liked Prince as much as I did. Then along came Jamie. lol

So I was on facebook earlier this eveing and Jamie posted a link to 'Miss A' asking people what they though. Well I really like her so decided to share. Its nice to hear someone new who's voice and song catch you with the first couple of notes.

I could only find this one tune on youtube. I will for sure be looking out for anything else that she has out there. I love Neo Soul.

I wish her luck and will be looking for her album when its released.

So what do you think?

Final Leg

So I have been without my passport for a week. Its been holed up at the Chinesse Embassy going through the visa application process. Not the easiest of processes like I said its taken a week. I can remember a couple of years ago going throuh the same process and it taking 1 day. Hmmmmmm .

Im sure the pretty visa will confuse the hell out of the passport control person that greets in my Atlanta in a couple weeks. Really dont need another episode like the one I had earlier this year. If you dont remember read here




So I have two more races Shanghai being the last and then the 2009 season comes to an end. Yep the fat lady is tuning up in the wings.



Like I have said before Im looking forward to getting in the weight room, running hills, segment runs and all the other things that make up winter training. Oh cant forget the group warm up. The first time I ever did Lorens group warm up, which takes between 40 and 60 mins I saw stars and nearly passed out. He has us out there like the 'Bolshoi Ballet'
. He has since revealed that he was aware that I was struggling. But, decided to teach me a lesson for turning up in Atlanta a month late by seeing how far he could push me before I tapped out. Needless to say I will be in Atlanta before fall training starts. Point taken Loren.



See the resembalance? lol






Also Im told there will be some new faces in the training group. I cant and wont give names right now but lets say Loren has been very popular this summer. Lots of people have approached him asking him to coach them. Must be nice to be so popular. lol.

So I will introduce you to the new guys in the coming weeks.

So The Season Is Coming To An End

I'm not going to bore you with a review of the season.
All I know is I am happy because this time last year I was injured in my eye beyond repair. I have rehabbed and worked on rebuilding and strengthening muscles.

I more than anything am looking forward to headed back to Atlanta to start preparing for next season. Which means 'Yes' I will be competing next year. I have a couple more races and then head back.

I have been thinking about all the things I have missed about Atlanta whilst being here this summer

Here they are

1. Orange Chicken


2. Queso


3. My training partners that I have not seen for some 4 months


4. And finally just being in Atlanta I really like training there.





So unless I have some news or a topic I want to share I will probably go back to posting my 'My quotes of the day'
