Had the first real hard effort of the season on sunday, in Tracton woods, very tough with the muck but a great course. Finished 4th in the munster ranks, but for a mechanical near the end i would have been 2nd, felt ill with the effort of the first hill! god racing is hard when you have been away for a while but i did get into it and rode fairly well considering i trained hard all week and for the last 4 weeks with no breaks, also i have only done a very limited amount of threshold stuff, so very happy with where i am at the end of jan.
My prótege Alex was flying and won Juniors, i think if he raced elites he would have been right up with me, which is where he needs to be. Great to see, hopefully he will stay with the sport and by next year be a minute or 2 ahead of me in races, if so he could have a chance of a junior national medal, the ultimate goal for us both as coach and athlete. Good day out and very well organised by MBCC.
