Introduction

This is my third attempt at starting a 'Blog' (I'm not very computer literate), originally devised as a vehicle to flame my good friend diva-working-mum (http://diva-working-mum.blogspot.com/). Her blogs are so shallow on occassion I fume for hours! I then realised, 'I can be as shallow as her' and decided to publish my training diary on the web. I am one of three 'Trioddities' (or odd triathletes) who recently moved from Singapore to Brisbane and, like many triathletes, I write down the pain I go through each day in the name of my past-time (or obsession, really). So be prepared for boring descriptions of how far I swim, bike and run!

The photo above was taken in 1963 on Mermaid beach, Gold Coast. I am the 3 y.o. red-head in the middle surrounded by three half siblings, two parents, a baby brother and an embryonic brother.
