2014 — a year of new beginnings for me. My resolution is to race the way I know how to race. I have gone back to my old coach and moved back to sea level and my goals are simple — race to my ability and see that finish line first. Also, to do my sponsors proud and work with each of them to blend into their marketing strategies and work with them on a corporate level.
Rebeccah Wassner
One of my New Year’s resolutions is to get back to doing Pilates regularly. I lost a lot of core strength over the last 18 months and now it’s time to get it back.
Melissa Hauschildt
Clear out all the junk and unused stuff in our house in Brisbane so that the move to Noosa is a lot easier. Big garage sale coming up!

To read at least 10 minutes a day. And in 2014 to find out what the Fox really says!
