Im a para - cyclist track sprinter specialising in the kilo (a 1km individual time trial) a race that's against the clock. I represented NSW at the 2010 Australian Track Championships, attaining the silver medal. I race every week during the track season with the Wagga Wagga Club.In 2009 i was voted by my fellow cyclist as the hardest worker/rider in the bunch. In 1987 i represented Australia at the F.E.S.P.I.C games in Japan for athletics. I ride 6 days a week with several tough sessions the norm, go to the gym twice a week and have one rest day a week, It is pretty full on.
Proudest Sporting Achievements
Representing Australia in athletics and NSW in cyclingWhat are you hoping to achieve
I'm aiming for inclusion in the 2012 Para Cycling Australian track squad for the 2012 London Para Olympics.How does LineBreak help
LINEBREAK is an integral part of my training regime in terms of recovery. After a hard training session, or race i jump into my LINEBREAK Compression garment. This ensures that I am getting the best possible recovery and that I am ready for the next day’s training effort.My Blog
