NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Home for Some well Deserved R&R

Am home for the next 5 days for some well-earned R&R. Am spending this morning catching up with e-mails, drinking coffee and eating Toblerone for breakfast. I may take the dog for a run in the park but other than that am not planning any training - time to recharge the batteries both mental and physical. I plan a good 3 weeks training when I get back to Qatar and then it will be time for RTU - time seems to have really flown by.

2009 looks like being a year of change for me, so am not planning any events at the moment other than Barcelona in October. I hope to do the IS and RAF Champs events but I shall have to see how things are when I start my new job.

Train smart folks. Time for another piece of Toblerone...
