Oooops...apologies! I know, I've been away for a few days (I took a cheeky weekend off, as the last few weeks have been rather full on) but now I'm back! Now, to break from the usual format, I am going to start on a topic away from work. Now, it's common knowledge that of...
One of the hardest things about travelling around so much with work, is that when you come back to normality, everything seems a little mundane & a little "run of the mill". In addition to those feelings, I've had a lot of paperwork to do since my return too - a debrief report..
Here I am, just about to check out of the hotel & head to the track for the last day of the Aviva UK Trials & Championships, whilst reflecting on yesterday's events down at Alexander Stadium. It was certainly a big day, with the races of the day arguably not even being any of...

Believe me, I thought long & hard before adding this photo onto the blog...I am fully aware that some of you may accuse me of being on a jolly (holiday) rather than being away with work! This was the view that I took in late this afternoon when, with all athletes treated, I...
