Reflections
As I write this I am currently sat in an aeroplane, a few kilometres up above the north coast of Brazil, en route to Rio de Janeiro. What a difference a year makes!

We had a good week’s training in a mix of conditions out here before the event started. We managed to fit in a trip to the Guinness Factory […]
The City of Dreams – Rio Training Camp
The day after graduation it was back to the day job, training down in Weymouth. July was a great month of getting back into gym and sailing training, in preparation for a big second half of the summer. At the end of July we headed out to Brazil for our first Rio experience. Never […]
