Its Wednesday, 1st October and we have now had officially 3 days without rain.  I am pretty stoked and all training has gone to plan for this week.  Amazing what a bit of sunshine can do the ones motivation!

Well, the weekend just gone would have to be the hardest I have worked, yet still managed to have fun.

Norm and I ran our first WOMENS MTB Skills Camp in Forrest. 
10 eager women braved the cold and I am telling you it was cold and wet!
We even got a night ride in on Saturday, with only 2 people out of the entire group opting out.

What a wonderful group of people, it always amazes me that we somehow are lucky enough to have enthusiastic and happy people attend our courses.

With the weekend being a great success despite the weather, Monday was a day of recovery and relaxation...and a tonne of washing.

But it was also the start of an awesome week of training - which has been lacking a bit of late.

A fun ride to Lorne, a great ride with Norm around Colac, a night ride with the crew and I am yet to do the 33km You Yangs Yowie for a bit of training and fun.

A great night ride last night, no rain, no wind, those arm warmers came off in a hurry...happy to be hot!
So bring on Scott 24hr, positive thoughts, self affirmation, good fun and an attempt to defend my 2008 SOLO Female winner title.
