Hold on to your hats...
The simple answer is that this summer I am heading off on an adventure that I am not entirely sure of the start date of. It is July now and to be honest I had expected my gear to have all been shipped, but it hasn't so I guess I could have entered some races after all, if only my head (and my funds) had been in order...
Yet I am distracting from the point. The point of which, maybe has not fully sunk in. it may be a case of being careful what you wish for, as with a little hard work and some luck, your wishes can come true...
As you know, I am a teacher living, working, training and tweeting from the UK but I am proud to announce that from August this will not continue, I am going to be moving with my family to work on the other side of the world on the northern tip of Borneo in a small country called Brunei!
My wife finishes her job tomorrow and our house is up for rent, this is really going to happen! I hope that the move, while being a fantastic opportunity for my career will give me more time with my immediate family, an opportunity to travel, and some more time to get even fitter - I mean training in 30 degrees in 85% humidity has got to make you fitter right?!
So I want to thank everyone who has supported us, and if you are reading this from a link on twitter, you are also a great group of people who are inspirational in your own right - I hope I return such inspiration! So my tweets might hit your time lines a little off on the time stakes, but don't forget me, I hope we can still compare training and if you're on strava look me up and join my team to stay in touch!
As I move forward on to the next chapter of our adventure, I will leave you with an Old Proverb,
'There is a choice you have to make, in everything that you do. You must always keep in mind that the choices you make... make you.'
Blue.
