Beijing, here I come!

I am now officially part of the NZ Olympic team!

It's good to know that I can now purely focus on what I've got to do and go ahead and get all the preparation done. It's what I've trained the last six or seven years for, six or seven days a week going out and slogging my guts out. This is the pinnacle of the sport, and just to get to the Olympics is absolutely amazing.

I'm going to have to run extremely fast to achieve my goal of finishing in the top 16 but that's what I'm heading there to do so its a matter of running my guts out really!!

To be in Beijing with those elite few is a very humbling experience just knowing I'm up there with all those other guys!
