Nespresso Me Up! and Perth Olympic Champs

Perth Olympic Distance Triathlon

Well after being injured and deciding not to race in the Perth OD Champs a great deal came on the table to allow me to compete in a team with Matt Illingworth and Cody Angell.

The race is this sunday morning at Langley Park in the City and is lined up to be a great day with professional athletes Luke McKenzie and Kate Bevilaqua to heat up the fields.

Our team lineup will be

1.5km Swim = Myself

40km Ride = Matt Illingworth

10km Run = Cody Angell

Not have raced in a team before it will be a good change letting me go all out in the swim and not worrying about saving any energy for the other two legs and watching the other two lads belt it out.

With Matt being one of the fastest age group riders in Perth and Cody being a verry strong runner from america I am sure we will put out a dominating time to see us on the podium.

Nespresso Me Up!

Well its official... I am a coffee addict!

Yesterday I became a proud owner of a Delonghi Nespresso EN680M.

Its a little beast of a machine thats already pumped out a few coffees to give me a little kick in the morning to start the day. It works with little special coffee capsules that come in all sorts of flavours to test the taste buds. So far I have had the Vivalto Lungo and Finezzo Lungo capsules. Theres another 14 flavours to try still and after those two im already impressed.

The best thing is I purchased it at a bargain price of $680 when it retails for $799! The Good Guys in O'Connor price matched http://www.applianceonline.com/ which made me a happy kid :)

It now sits nicely nesteled next to our other awesome maching the

Breville Fountain Plus Juicer

This kitchen appliance has been getting a flogging by myself and fellow Triathlete/Housemate Tom Bakowski.

This Juicer has made all sorts of juice from beetroot to pinapple. Its definitaley a crowd pleaser when guests come over n makes an awesome rattle at 5am to wake up all the neighbours.

So far my favourite goes to orrange and carrot juice.

Having an intolerance to a thing called FODMAPS which limits my fruit options by not being able to have watermelon, apple and peaches to just name a few of a long list. Orrange and Carrot not only tastes awesome but provides me with plenty of vitamins.

I find that by having a fresh juice everyday its also helped my body cut down the fat percentage to lean me up! Definitaley a good buy and should be an item in every persons kitchen!
