The final blog of the year is coming all the way from Falls Creek...and what a place to bring in the new year! Falls is one of my favourite places on earth. The scenery is something else, the riding amazing and the running awesome.
We have just spent the final day of 2011 doing a stellar ride down the back side of Falls Creek to Omeo and return. A big day in the saddle, and totally worth it...we even got to see some wild brumbies in our travels!
2011 has been a huge year full of travel, training, racing, and most of all good times. I also achieved two of my major goals of the year, one being going back to Uni (even if it is only part-time!), and the other racing my first World Champs race at the pro level. It has also been one tough year learning and observing first hand the amount of hard work, dedication and sacrifice it will take to become a successful athlete. The lessons I have learnt throughout the year and the adventures I have had will stay with me forever.
2012 is looking to be another great year with some exciting races and travel planned. I am so lucky to have the support of family and friends, and so thankful that I can share all of life's adventures with Sam.
It has definitely been an experience doing 52 consecutive weeks of blogging. However, I will make sure to keep the blog alive into 2012 (just not so frequent!).
Until next time,
Happy New Year!
