Back home in NZ I never used to eat chocolate and even got headaches from the stuff when I was younger. But since ive been in Leysin this Prix Garantie chocolate has been going down a treat. At only 0.45 Francs, you get 100grams of sugar, fat, and protein in a easy to eat source. This plus a can of coke and you have an instant sugar rush which gets you up the hill no matter what state you are in before it ![]()
On a side note, the legs have been a little stiff today, as I have been putting in some run miles. But the coach always seems to know, and we all had a easy day today with just a complusory splash this morning.

Swiss Addiction
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009Challenge
Wednesday, June 17th, 2009This past weekend I competed in Challenge Kraichgau.
The orgainsers put us up in a real nice hotel and looked after us real well. Race day came and went real fast. I had a tough day at the office and really struggled on the bike. Lucky for me James, Becks and Lis where all smashing it so that put abit of a smile on my face ![]()
I have got IM Switzerland in 4 weeks time so I am looking forward to another IM and testing out my body over a longer race.
Today I have swam this morning and the Boss has given me the rest of the day off. So time to catch up on some TV and internet
Avia 2231 Shoe review
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009I have been running in the Avia 2231 shoes since the beginning of the year and can sum them up as:
• Light weight
• Durable
• Fast
• Breathable
I have had numerous injury problems in previous shoes but the Avia’s have been working well and I have had no running injuries so far this season
