My two months in Europe came to a close with the 3rd World Cup which was held in Emmen, Netherlands. I had some great training in the lead up to this last World Cup for the year and was really looking forward to racing. Hannah and I took 2 days to drive from Italy to [...]
What an amazing two and a half weeks I had in Italy. Although I must say that it all didn't go according to plan, but what ever does?! I have learnt that Charles R Swindoll author of The Grace Awakening was so right when he said "We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we [...]
After leaving the team in Belgium, I travelled to Dortmund, Germany with Hannah Dines of Scotland. We drove her car, which is a right hand drive car on the right hand side of the road. Talk about weird! But it is amazing how you can get used to something, now I will just have to [...]

We get distracted with yesterday and tomorrow and end up missing amazing moments that are right here in front of us in the present. The past and future don’t exist today, so start [...]
