1st Month Of Summer Training Block Finshed.

As May comes to an end, the first month of my summer training block is over. The focus over the last month was to bulid a good basic fitness platform, so in the following months I can now move on to specilise in certain aspects of my fitness. In June me and my physical trainer Christoph will be concentrating on buliding a good strength program for me. I will also be uping my miles on the bike to improve my cardio and the endurance in my legs.

Good news on my head race coach Brett Lowney. He is now in his last week of rehab, after his serious accident in Febuary and is certain to be fit for our 8 week training camp in Chile.

Will keep you updated, cheers Ben.
