Well i have been home now for about 1.5 weeks and it has been bliss, i was also very lucky as well. When we arrived on the wednesday the 23rd there was a huge dust storm in sydney that travelled up to queensland, we landed at about 6am in the morning and we arrived at home about 2 hours after that and then as soon as we dropped our bags on the floor the dust storm had hit our home, the reason we were lucky was becasue any flights coming in on that day were either delayed or cancelled.
That week i started back at training on the saturday and it felt so good to get back into training and to feel fit and strong again. I Started back in the gym today and i am so happy that it wasnt as hard as it was going to be, the exercises wer based around getting my core strong again so that my back will get better and that i hopefully wont have any more dramas.
Last week i went to browns plains little athletics to do a talk to the little athletes, and also try and inspire them to achieve there dreams and to work hard for what they want, the appearance was run by AXA and mission australia. These two organisations are sponsoring 10 indigenous athletes from the area in brisbane called Inala, these kids are a little disadvantaged compared to some of the other kids, so we thought that it would be great to help them out by helping them get to the little athletics centre in browns plains and also get them a uniform so that they can be apart of the group and fit in.
Wedding plans are going great. I had my bridesmaids down t the gold coast for a weekend to sort out sizes for their dresses, and i also chose my wedding dress which i was very excited about, but it is staying a secret till the actual day before i let nayone know what it looks like.
i think that is about it for now, ill keep in touch. P.S it my dog oscars birthday today he is 1 years old.
