“We did it!” We set a goal to have our website back on track by March 2008 and its with great pride that we are back online. Fresh, vibrant and ready to inspire and be inspired! The re-launch of this hip, new site parallels the beginning of our training block towards Beijing in August of this year. Though our Olympic dream began before we were 10 years old, it is now at 30 that the moment of realizing our objective is upon us. We will spend Jan, Feb, and March in Adaleide, Australia; training 4 hours each day on the sand, three days a week in the gym, sprint training on sand, and committing to mental training exercises! Austraiia will host the first World Event of the season in late March and then 4 more weeks of training in Adaleide before we head out to Asia and Europe for the remaining qualifying tournaments towards Beijing. All this because WE LOVE WHAT WE DO and DO WHAT WE LOVE!
Have we qualified for the Olympics yet? That’s the question everyone’s been asking… Here’s the deal: we are 5 spots out of the Olympics at the present moment and have 12 events (from March to July of 2008) to accumulate points to rank in the top 24 in the world and be eligible for Beijing in August. Calculations indicate that we are looking to earn 800+ points to secure a spot and tangibly that amounts to 9th place finishes and better to get us well over the line. The opportunity is there and available and we are focused each and every day with that goal in mind! Our practice sessions are all about INTENTION and using the most of our time to move swiftly in the direction of our goal. It’s an exciting time that brings out the best in each individual on this team (Sarah, Marie, and William).
Stay tuned for (at least) a BLOG entry per month as well as photos and an exciting launch of a support opportunity that each and everyone can be involved in. They say it takes a “community to raise a child” and our 6 years as a team has revealed that it takes a COMMUNITY to raise a team to the highest of sporting podiums…the Olympic Gold! We are grateful for your patience and support as we endeavoured to create a site that was worthy of your enjoyment.
Drop us a line and tell us how us getting to and excelling at the Olympics will inspire something in your own life. We look forward to sharing with you and building energy towards realizing ALL dreams…
