My Dutch Friend...Anneke

Time was running out before i left for Cambodia. I seemed to be trying to fit in too much and i was exhausted, but i figured that i wouldn't see a lot of my friends for a long time, and what would it matter if i was a bit tired for a few days! Anneke moved to Canberra from Brisbane almost a year ago. We had a few months in Brisbane together before she moved. She was a real inspiration. She a dedicated triathlete, she's very focussed and is very good at getting people motivated. She really helped me believe that i could get into triathlon. We trained together to do the Gold Coast Half Marathon and we'd often go on rides or runs together. She has a fresh look on life, she's a go getter and a great friend. We clicked from the beginning, we think it's probably as we have the same birthday, same way of approaching things. Anyway i saw Anneke for a few hours in Sydney before moving. It was lovely to catch up - who knows when we'll see each other again - regardless of when it is it will great fun.
