Back in the UK, working on fitness; particularly handcycling and swimming training for my sponsored biathlon next week, and confirming training plans for this winter. I had a busy weekend playing in women's wheelchair basketball league games (and winning!).

Today I worked with the British Paralympic Association strength and conditioning coach, the team doctor and the development coach, ski training at Milton Keynes snowdome, followed by a filming session with SKY TV for a Christmas news bulletin. I really can't wait to get back out to the mountains again!

The season's finally started! I'm out in Austria, training with the British Disabled Ski Team, learning loads thanks to the excellent, highly intense training. It won't stop snowing and visability isn't great but the snow is!

Great to train with the team and have such expansive feedback. The sports psych's been scrutinizing us, lots to work with.

I'd like to say a big thank you to my friend Tom who set up this fab site, to TWO SEASONS for your help with kit and fundraising, and to my friends and family who have been a huge support with the skiing. You're great!

A great start to an intense season!
