Countries could invade each other, governments may rise and fall, the Higgs-Boson particle could turn up on Polzeath Beach for all I care - if it's not going to make my boat go faster This is not to say I don't care about the outside world but more to point out that as athletes we have a very small window of opportunity to get it right We have one shot and if we mess it up there's no second chance which means I can't afford to do anything other than keep my eye completely focused on the ball (or perhaps the oar) at the moment During this time in 2008 there was a global banking crisis with Lehman Brothers going bankrupt the month after the Olympics: was I aware of it at the time The Olympic women's eight crew was put together during the World Cup season It's consequently an incredibly energising and exciting time The reason we get out of bed and go training every day for four years is to give us the opportunity to produce the performance of our lives at the Olympic Games; and finally or talk about when the squad will re-commence for training for next season or discussion about building over the Olympiad: the talking's over You want to finally do what you've been dreaming about for four years The key to the Olympics is that it draws together all sports from all countries and there are not any other occupations that could say that One of my brothers is a pretty good journalist but he would never be able to go to a journalists' competition to test himself against other journalists from every country in the world from Norway to Niger Being an Olympian means exactly the same thing to every athlete This period has also presented some new challenges to me because it's my first season racing in the women's eight The eight is a very unique boat because it's the biggest and the heaviest boat so although it takes a while to get it up to speed when it gets there it goes like a juggernaut Rowing in an eight is a bit like being in an arranged marriage with eight other women: we haven't chosen each other have ended up together through circumstance but we've got to make it work for sake of the kids (or in our case for the sake of the Olympic medals which will be handed out in 20-odd days' time) It's been a hugely exciting learning experience for me and it certainly has kept things interesting Our next stage is to translate all the work we've done out here into speed at race pace and really test out what we've created to see how much speed we can eke out over 2000m or register to comment You and the lighties are down on the Rhine If altitude training is a 'good thing' then why aren't you up the mountain too All this user's posts have been removed.Why?

Explain I watched the Canadians mens 8+ doing some final tune up sessions before leaving for Italy last week and what struck me most You couldn’t even hear the cox giving orders and countless hours on the water together I guess everyone knows their job and goes about it in a calm like Annabel says “the talking is over.”Good luck to the British women’s 8+ they’ve got their work cut out with strong US and Canadian crews but home water will give them an extra boost Good luck but in this case make yourself lucky Pity you cann't try the "Bädische Wein" its great together with Käse Spätzler Jump to more content from this blog For the latest updates across BBC blogs, visit the Blogs homepage You can stay up to date with Annabel Vernon via these feeds Annabel Vernon Feed(RSS) Annabel Vernon Feed(ATOM) If you aren't sure what RSS is you'll find our beginner's guide to RSS useful complete archive These are some of the popular topics this blog covers You're using the Internet Explorer 6 browser to view the BBC website.
