The team for the London World Championships was announced yesterday and I am pleased to have been named on the Elite team for 2013. Here is a short piece I wrote in response to a few questions for the press release, I thought I would share it here.
“It is a privilege to be selected to represent Australia at an Elite
World Championships and something which I am very proud and honoured to do. We
have a rich history and I want to be a part of the new generation to continue
the legacy which has been set before us. My first Elite Worlds last year I
unfortunately got a flat tyre but continued on after losing significant time to
come 26th. Although my Junior Worlds history is a lot brighter with 2 silvers
and a gold (07,08,10). I would love to
have a great race In London to give the selectors a convincing reason to consider
me for the Commonwealth games. I will
race in Stockholm three weeks before London to get another Olympic distance
race done. My early races in the year were coming off a significant period of
injury so I have been satisfied to have been improving throughout the year, before hopefully saving my best race to
last.”
