And we’re back….
in Sydney after a fabulous time in Noosa. The Runner’s already entered the race for next year, Membership Has Its Privileges– Membership in Triathlon Australia that is! So it’s only 362 days until we do it all again! I’m gearing up for this week’s challenge – Tracy Salad and Parma Wrapped Lamb with Savoy Cabbage.…

Update from Noosa
