I lead the final down the first 2 straights but hit a boggy patch and got passed down the 3rd muddy straight by Melinda McLeod and could not fight back for the win under the tough conditions.
Over the weekend I had 60 Minutes Australia filming me racing, riding, interviews and doing a motivational talk at Lyneham High School for an up coming episode. I also shot an interview and commercial for Chanel 9. The next ten weeks are going to be crucial to be on top of my game and injury free through 3 World Cups and World Championships to finish up a long Olympic qualifying process.
