Hello to all of you
I hope you are all doing well and are happy wherver you may be or whatever you might be doing.
Things have taken a bit of backward step in some ways, and huge steps forward in others, since the
big drinking weekend. I couldn't train for the first week and got a stomach bug the second week, so
basically very little training happening in the last couple of weeks. A couple of 90km cycles and a
handful of 45km rides to work and back and that is about it over the past 3 weeks. The great news is
that I have been able to start surfing again so that will be my swim training for the year. Into a
rest week now (didn't want to change my schedule around as my body obviously needs a break) and then
back into it.

I have also hopefully found a team for Noosa so will be doing the bike leg, really happy to be a
part of it.

Hope you are all well, drop me a line or give me a call if there is anything I can help with
(training advice etc).

Lots of love
Oscar

Hey guys and gals
Talk about a reminder that I'm no spring chicken; I went to Noosa on my rest weekend with Benda for
a mountain bike ride followed by a couple of nights of serious boozing (talking the kind that leaves
you on your knees at 5am Mon morning adding nutrients to the flowerbed). That was two weekends ago
and this morning on the way to work was the first time I have felt decent in 8 days!!! I had to take
two days off work last week (Monday and Friday) just to sleep! I went out Sat to do 80km and was
home after 35km to sleep for 3 hours, had a good couple of hours Mountain biking with friends on
Sunday (great for leg speed and spinning) and slept for 3 hours afterwards.. you get the picture.
Anyway, was in bed by 8pm last night and slept til 7 this morning and finally feel good again, great
speed session on the highway to work this morning and a fast run tonight.
Moral of the story is don't drink yourself to a standstill two days in a row on a rest week after
not drinking at all for 4 months!
Hope you are all fit, well and able to handle your alcohol better than me
Cheers
Oscar

Hey guys
well, as for the weekend it was a busy. Managed to squeeze an hour in on the turbo on saturday
morning and again tonight (monday).

cheers

Hello back from your not so furry friend!
Can't say i've been doing anywhere near the amount of Km's you've been peddling... something about
my job just hasn't been conducive to a life the last few weeks - may have been the 12-20 hr shifts i
was working. Happy to say i managed to escape to the sunny coast for a day to recoup though. So got
a great ride to Coolum on wednesday. The weather may not have been as gorgeous as mon or tues, and i
may have gotten a little rained on but it felt great to be out there. I'm actually surprised at how
good my legs felt. Though for sure with how exhausting my schedule has been that they'd be dead -
but happy to say i was wrong. Also managed a quick cycle around Brisbane yesterday before heading
back to work today. On 12 hr shifts all weekend, so will have to settle the turbo.

On another note I am psyched about the team kit, we are going to look flash.

Happy peddling!

Helloooo my furry friends
I can't believe how fast another rest week has swung around and just how much I need it. I clocked
up just over 600km on the bike over the past 3 weeks and I am feeling it! The funny thing is that
the training was going really well and on track until I did that short TT and a couple of runs and I
felt shagged ever since. I had to take Mon off and rest week started yesterday... full day off today
as well and back in the gym tomorrow and some Mountain biking on the weekend. Looking at posting
just over 800kms in the next 4 week block as well as starting to increase the running and pumping
some heavier weights.

New kit is nearly finalised now and we are going to have a training weekend up here on the Sunshine
Coast once it arrives which should be fantastic fun and a good chance for the team to ride together
all kitted out.

In fitness and in health
Toodles
