Meet the NEW Training Partner.

With the Hamstring giving me grief since Sunday i took the past  two days off and got a massage on Tuesday to help ease the muscles.  Wednesday is the normal Brick Day with Roger but unable to do today so Roger was OK just to spin around on the bike with me for an easy 60 minutes in the park.
A bit of work to do after before i had an appointment to see my new training partner in the city.... Readers of the TRASH meet.................... USAIN (Bolt) , Yes after much deliberation i have purchased a new time trial bike, i thought after 4 years with the old trusted Cervelo it was time to upgrade and i think i can justify a new one with the a triathlons and duathlons that i am now doing.
Ended up getting the Specialized Shiv Comp, and if i can get half as good usage out of it as i did the Cervelo i will be more then happy. Been given the nickname Usain (after the great feats of the Man in the Games) , on the bases that its Fast and its Black :)

The New Machine, now just need the engine to drive the thing

Usain will be making his debut at either the Parramatta or BRAT Duathlon - lets hope PLOD is not there :)



Went back to the park at lunch and did a few easy laps to test it out - early days but felt OK, even saw the HuRTS boys lead by Mikey Conway on there longish Wednesday run in the there as well.

Will continue to rest up on the running front for a few more days , I did want to do the Parramatta Duathlon on Sunday but i will make the call for that one on Friday

Just seen the official results from City to Surf - Seems i was faster then i thought. they have very generously give me a time of 51.27 now, so I'll take that :)

Anybody seen or heard of Davie Kane of late, getting worried about him, the fans (well J-Fen)  were asking me about his BLOG and the fact that he doesn't write anything when he's not running well?
I see he didn't run on Sunday, rumour going around is that he thought anything over 9.65ks was going to be to big an ask :)
Talking of which - anyone seen Ten Pound Tommy Highnam around town - I need to relieve him of a few English notes he may have left over from his recent holiday :)

Cheers
