It's all about performance, that's the name of the game

Hi fans,

I recently purchased a fixed-gear bicycle, or fixie for short. My colleague Raf baugh has been ragging me about riding a fixie. I found this video and I think it's appropriate for my video of the week.

Pause the video at :21 seconds. The guy on the left looks just like Raf baugh.



Until next week,

The Honourable Mr. Nathan Doig.

Ok so 2 weeks off with no running, only spending time on the windtrainer for a few sessions.

I had my first run yesterday and felt good for not running for 2 weeks. Achilles felt good no pain, considering the tough game have also pulled up extremely well today.

So for the next few days and weeks i will be again building up to 80 to 100 km a week and will be smarter for the break and going ahead will look after myself

I havent run for about a week to give my achillies a break i have been riding on the wind trainer (not the most fun thing i have done in my life) but it has appeased my runners brain whilst i havent been able to run. I have also been on the anti inflams everyday trying to bring the swelling down and it has started to feel good.

I feel that tonight is the night and i am going to venture out for an easy 5 km to start with and see how the body pulls up.

Wish me good luck.

It has been a while since my last post i have been out training running some km's.

And while that is all well and good and as fit as i am feeling i forgot one vital part of training...

Recovery and Massage, and i have paid for it now.


A niggle turned into tendonitis because i didnt listen to my body when it screamed at me for recovery and now i am forced to take a week off filled with massage, ice and anti inflams. After a 2 game weekend.

So people please listen to your body look after your body because it is the only one you have.

Running Regards

It has been a long busy month and some training has been done in this time.
I have managed to run everyday when i havent had to fly for games, so i am still getting the runs marked off, quality is not there still, but i am happy that i am running and still building a base.

Every man and his dog has just about come in for a massage before this weekends half ironman, lets hope everyone does well.

so the last week has been fitting runs in between clients or early mornings on the days i dont have to attend footy training, sunday game 18 km, monday 8km with gerry and cody along the beach from cott, tues footy, wed fit in a small run between clients, thurs am run 5km and 6* 400m, pm footy training, friday 5 km in between clients, and saturday is to be an easy 8 km before a game.

Enjoy

John Steffensen

I have been lucky enough to meet many great athletes in my line of work and very short running career.

But yesterday I was able to massage 400 metre Commonwealth Games Champion John Steffensen. Who is in Perth currently for the Australian National Champs which double as the Commonwealth Games selection Trials.

John is one of the nicest and down to earth guys I have met, being the good Perth Boy he is.

Here is a photo of a signed shoe John has run in and a Shirt he signed for me.

Best running regards
