Kia Ora everyone!
It is marvellous to be home, I have come back to some clear winter weather and Taupo is glorious.
I've thrown myself into getting back into a proper training regime and my coach hasn't wasted anytime getting me a new programme up and running. My holiday has worked a treat and I've come back with the body feeling great and rearing to go.
My vegetable garden has been trucking along while I've been away, so I am hoping my spinach will have a similar effect as Popeye's did, and with my new big arm muscles I can look forward to seeing a serious improvement in my swimming (and bashing bad guys of course).
I'm still getting a bit of cramp, but I am still collecting ideas for remedies, and so far stretching seems to be the key - its always good to have a strategy.
Here I am warming up for the Strasbourg race (the day before, in Kehl, Germany). The locals there were very supportive of my Ironmaiden campaign, even the giant mosquitoes.
Till next time!
love

Hello Ironmaiden, I often have problems with cramp. My best strategy is good fuel and hydration with an electrolyte drink before and during races.
