I can't tell... the last week of comps has literally taken it's toll... as you can see by the webcasts, I am really feeling the effects of not much sleep.  I am more concerned at this point that the competitors are comfortable and have everything they need.  I am fairly sure that now that today (preliminaries) is out of the way.. we can all relax just a bit more!!  (including me!......I have been blown away by the calibre of athletes over here and the quality of the lineups...the girls are getting better and better each year that goes by and we can only wish that they all make the trip downunder to visit against the best competitors in the world... (the aussies!)  We are really spoilt in Australia with the level of organisation and committment to the athletes our federations show.  I am not used to people just using these events as a money spinner with no regard to the athlete.  Again, it's all a learning curve for everyone when you travel internationally! I'm off to have a bit of a sleep and I just hope that all you guys and girls out there are getting a real insight to life on the road as a competitor!  It's not all glitz and glamour!
