Every Women Series Aquathlon Training Week 2
I caught a cold a few days after my first training post which meant my plans for lots of swimming and running was spoilt.
After a three day break to build up my immune system up i managed to fit in three 5k runs, along with some weight training sessions and circuits.
I have not had anytime to swim yet but will be swimming around 20 (100m) laps tomorrow.
One lap fast, one lap at normal pace x 20!
Photos soon to follow!
Over and out!

Womens Cricket - Sarah Andrews announces her retirement
Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars pace bowler Sarah Andrews has today announced her retirement from all forms of cricket.
The 28-year-old retires after playing three Tests, 39 one-day internationals and 16 Twenty20s after making her international debut in the Test against India in Adelaide in February 2006.
The right-arm quick, who originally hails from Newcastle, took four Test wickets at 33.75, 54 one-day wickets at 21.14 and 10 Twenty20™ scalps at 36.80.
Along with a fantastic career for her country, Andrews has also been a key player of the very successful NSW Breakers squad.
A member of the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars squad that recently returned from New Zealand with the Rose Bowl trophy, Andrews said she was very grateful for her opportunities to represent her country.
“I've been playing representative cricket for the last 10 years and have thoroughly enjoyed it. It has been a big part of my life so this was always going to be a very tough decision,” Andrews said.
“I am going to miss it a lot, especially my team mates and all the characters within the game. I've have a lot of fond memories of cricket and it's been great to be part of so many successful teams.
“There are a lot of people I need to thank for helping me achieve what I have. I've had some great coaches during my career, going back to my early days in Newcastle, right through to NSW and Australian level.
“My family, friends and team mates have always been very supportive, as have Cricket NSW and Cricket Australia,” Andrews said.
Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars coach Richard McInnes paid tribute to Andrews’ career, especially her development in recent time, leading the attack.
“Sarah has been a very valuable member of the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars squad over a long period and it’s been very pleasing to see the way she has improved,” McInnes said.
“In recent times, Sarah has led our young bowling attack and her experience in assisting those younger players has been very valuable.
“There’s no doubt that she will be missed around the group, but we wish her every success in the future,” McInnes said.

Day one in the USA - By Helen Wyman
I have arrived safe and well in Portland Oregon and what a place. It’s so beautiful here and I really enjoyed my first day out on the bike and can’t wait to keep riding as I prepare for my first race in Seattle this weekend.
I’m trying to keep things as American as possible, just so that I can get a real taste of life ‘State Side’. It’s my first time outside Europe and I want to get the most of the experience. I’ve been really lucky to have some great support here.
