Aiming for 120%

Well, while I’m disappointed at the Australian Rugby team going down to New Zealand last night in the Bledisloe cup I can cling to the fact that Dan Carter (New Zealand), whom ruptured his Achilles in February, played an influential part in this game kicking the last goal to seal the match.

Nice to see recoveries like this in relatively short periods of time in high impact, fast paced sports like Rugby.
It make me feel that returning to my modest aspirations of social sport are realistic (assuming the right effort in recovery and ongoing fitness/strength).

Of course I understand the professional athletes come from a very high fitness base and money is no object in their treatment….
