This is a bit of an overdue post considering that we haven’t added much to the site in the last month. Apologies. March was a case of keeping the head down and putting the training in. In my case I also had to take care of my work before I could head off warm weather training in April.

I arrived in Portugal last Wednesday to train with Gordon in Monte Gordo. Gordon had come over a week before me so he had the place sussed out for me which was very handy. As a place to train, it really is fantastic here. The weather is sooo much better than home, the facilities are top class and the buzz of being around other athletes never wears off. As resort towns go MonteG (as we like to call it) is very quiet but it suits the people that come here, namely athletes and old people. At the moment there is about 10 other Irish athletes so it’s great to have people to hang out with when we’re not training.

Anyways if we don’t give in to a case of Cabin Fever, we’ll add a few photos and maybe a video of our training over here (Gordon loves a good montage).

Cheers
Brian
