Well I have arrived back from a very relaxing and fun honeymoon in LA and Hawaii. We had an amazing time over there. The weather wasn’t the best but we didn’t mind. Now I am back and ready to train and get back into business. I started training on Tuesday afternoon and I could not believe how sore I was the next day, I have never been so sore after starting back but it was good to get back into a routine again and come back to normal life.
My coach and I sat down again to discuss my European season and we are very happy about it. We have decided to start a little later this year as the Commonwealth Games are so late in the year. I am going to head over to Europe in late July and the one person who is most happy about that is my husband. The reason being is that l will actually be here for his birthday which I haven’t been for about 3 years now. I better make it good for him.
Back to Europe, I’ll be starting off in Monaco one of my favourite places to compete in the world. I’ll keep you posted on where I’ll be after that like I did last year. Before I go to Europe I will be going to New York in eight weeks time to run my first race since the world championships last august. I am so excited that I am jumping out of my skin, not only because it is my first race but also because I absolutely love New York it is one of my favourite cities.
Well since I have been back I have caught up with some AXA people on the Gold Coast at Sea World. It was so much fun. First we watched the dolphin show then I signed some autographs and then my jet lagged hit me. I had to leave early and fell straight to sleep. Earlier in the afternoon I did an interview up on stage in front of a couple hundred AXA people with one of their comedians that they had invited to come, he was a lot of fun which made it easier.
Anyway I will talk to you soon and let you know how my training is going before I go to New York.

here are some phots from the honeymoon

I am now sitting in the qantas lounge waiting to board a flight to sydney to go to LA for my honeymoon, woohoooo i am so excited and i cant believe that i will be going to disneyland this afternoon LA time, That is so weird. They are 18 hours behind us so i will be arriving in LA 1 hour before i leave Australia, i believe that will be good for my jet lag so that i dont go straight to sleep.

anyway better get back to it talk to you later

Wohhh it is my wedding day tomorrow and i am so excited, at the moment i am with my bridesmaids playing pool and am about to settle down and watch a dvd before we go to sleep.

I have had a few dramas for this wedding, like today the florist turned up to the wedding a day early to deliver all the flowers and the cake lady would not deliver because she said that she was to busy and the wedding dress shop forgot to give me my vail when i picked my dress up, and because yesterday was good friday i couldnt get a hold of them so i have to call them tomorrow and run out and get it then.

so many dramas and so little time. oh well not much i can do now, i am just going to sit back and relax and hope for the best tomorrow and really enjoy myself.

anyway better get going and get rested for tomorrow.

talk to you soon,
sally
