This was a disrupted training week, but an important week mentally. A chance to refresh the mind and body as I got the chance to follow the Springboks once more.

The Boks were based down on the Gold Coast, at Surfers Paradise, so there was a bit of travelling. Because we had guests on Monday night, Tuesday was a right off too!

Wednesday I once again had a short run with Adnaan, and we talked once again about how to prepare for the Comrades marathon.

Although there wasn’t a lot of training this week, spending time around the Springboks, watching them train, seeing fantastic role models and seeing them win the Tri-nations gives me plenty of inspiration, motivation and encouragement to go for my Comrades Marathon dream.

Next week it’s back into the hard grind and another tough training week…
