It is always good to be perky. Or so I am told. So what are the perks for a pro of being in the Philippines?!

Hawaii Highs: the IM World Championships 2007
November 5, 2007
It’s been just over three weeks since Hawaii, and I think I am the slowest I have ever been – at posting my blog! I can’t believe it has taken me so long to put fingers to keyboard.

Iron Man Dream Come True
August 28, 2007
Overwhelmed, surprised and esctatic – there are not enough words to describe how I am feeling right now. I keep pinching myself to make sure its not a dream. Then I see all the chaffing and I realise what i …
Worlds & Wheels
July 17, 2007

I lined up at the start of the Subic Bay ITU points race with the usual mix of nervousness and excitement in my stomach. I was sure a few butterflies had become trapped in there, or maybe that was just …
Phillipino Inspiration
May 10, 2007
There are downsides to this job. Constantly washing sweaty clothes is one. Having ludicrous zebra style tan lines is another. But there are some positives. Spending a week training and racing in the Philippines was one of these, and for …
Taking the plunge
April 24, 2007
Joining teamTBB has been a total baptism of fire for me. Up until a few months ago my life consisted of juggling numerous balls – of the sporting, full time work and social variety – but I was finding it …
