Mojo
Ok, I’m sorry, I know I have been slack with my blog...but to be fair it’s only Wednesday, so I am 2 days late.
What has been happening since my last post? Ironman NZ...let’s just say that the swim was the best part of my day....enough said eh.
The resulting back injury is coming right slowly, and I’m now running 5-6 days a week. I keep saying to myself that I must get myself fit again, but for some reason I just can’t seem to find my mojo. So if anyone out there finds it, let me know....I’d like it back.
What’s next for me? Well, I seriously don’t know, but I would like to give Auckland Marathon a good nudge later this year, especially since I had to abandon my plan to run the Christchurch Marathon.

Probable DNS – Ironman NZ 2010
I am currently in a position where I won’t be doing Ironman New Zealand in March cause I literally can’t afford the $805 entry fee & the $1000 accommodation charges. I find it frustrating that a lack of money will exclude me from competing. I would have been able to compete if my car hadn’t broken down just prior to Christmas and is now going to cost me $3k plus to repair (fired turbo).
It’s an interesting position to be in as I really want to compete, and I still feel like I am going to be wading into Lake Taupo on race morning full of nervous anticipation, but the reality is I just can’t see how I am going to be able to do it...especially with the entries closing on the 17th January. Right now I would say that there is about a 10% chance of me being on the start line.
