Gent

I am just not sure if summer exists here in Europe at the moment.


I raced in Gent, Belgium yesterday afternoon and it felt like I was back racing at Canberra at High Noon Meets, it was not so good! Windy, cold and no sun was shining. Matt and I made the drive to Gent from Cologne, and it took around two hours, there were spots of rain on the way, but at least at this meet it was not raining. The Women’s 100m heat were the first evetn of the program, I ran well in my heat 11.60 (-1.3w), excellent last part of my race, still so much to get right but it’s all heading in the right direction.
