August was a difficult month for me. I fell ill in the late stages of July, which meant that I had to miss out an important race in the British Super Series (BSS), and missed a couple of weeks of my training. Getting back to fitness was hard, but I felt strong leading into the Mallory Park BSS race. I was unfortunately disappointed with my race, with a bad swim I had no hope to catch the front bike pack and my run was mediocre at best, finishing 19th in the end. Training since then has been going well and I hope to be at full fitness for the latter half of the season.
