Home Sweet Home

Well that's it European Championships complete!!

A great team effort from Team GB and 19 medals brought home, 6 Gold, 7 Silver, and 6 Bronze and one of the silver medals went to my good friend and training partner Mr Mark Lewis Francies! To say I was over the moon for him was understatement and trust me he was over the moon too! It's always great to see someone in your group do so well and after a period of time out makes the achievements even more sweeter. It certainly rubs off and makes me want to achieve greatness on my return to athletics but at the same time I have to be patient as my time will come I'm sure of that!!

I had such an amazing time the atmosphere was electric and I had front seats! I learnt alot whilst I was away it's always good to watch how every ones preparation differs know one prepares the same and you always learn new drills or different aspects of warm up! I took plenty of mental notes whilst at the training track and in the warm up track at competition.

I didn't get to run in the relay and of course I was disappointed and upset if I wasn't then there would have been something wrong me! But these things only make me stronger, I look at it as it wasn't my time to run these things happen for a reason and mine is that I need to make the commonwealths for the individual spot and the relays so I can now take my dissappointed and put it to good use on the track and post the qualifying time so they have to pick me and I have to run!!

So Now I am back home in Plymouth with my beautiful baby girl and as soon as I was back I was back to training getting myself prepared to race this Sunday. It's not a massive competition for me but I'm representing Devon at the South West Inter Counties. I enjoying doing these meetings as it's my routes it's where I cone from and where I started out! I'm doing both the 100 and 200 plus check this out........the SHOT!!!! I am Devon Champion and all haha. So for me I am looking to go there and run fast and who knows try and break the records, not that I know what they are but anything is possible and I know I am in great shape at the moment and ready to run FAST!!!!!!!!
