3Fest Melbourne Multi-Sport Conference

Just a quick plug for a conference I'm presenting at this weekend, on Saturday, which features a fantastic line-up of speakers...Craig Alexander, Jason Shortis, Tony Benson, Naantali Marshall, Pita Cedaro...and little 'ol me!!

My presentaion is "Training Like a Triathlete", which is a very broad topic that I could speak all day on...however I'm limited to just 60mins, followed by Mr. Alexander. I hope to get a photo with him!!

Here's a little summary of the conference from the 3Fest web-site (http://www.3fest.com.au/).
