I am writing this at about 4am on my first day off and break until the New Year. Why 4am? I went in for step 2 of 3 with getting a tooth implant, requiring a bone graft and insertion of a titanium pin yesterday. I cannot sleep! Painkillers are supposed to make you sleep- not me!!

This is about the very disappointing final of the BSG Energade Triseries in Cape Town about 1.5 weeks ago. I had been on the 'go' since 8am on the Sat before the race. Getting to CT presented a few more challenges, wh...

After the Zim Continental Cup, I had a quick week to try and get the body ready for Pretoria. I am still learning the art of racing two OD races back to back and seems still have a way to go!

Week 1.. abscess returns... 4 days later race in the first event of the BSG Energade Triseries and suffer big time... ended up 7th. A week later and the second event in the Triseries wasn't a hell of a lot better but at least could hang in the front packs in the swim and bike legs. I ended up in 6th there.

I am now 2 days after having my front tooth out.. which I was quite weirdly nervous for! Anyway, after the tooth was pulled I tried slugging a milkshake down with Nikki before heading off to...
