Melanie Ryding, GB Age Group Triathlete: Olympics Cycle Time Trial: the Gamesmaker's view
http://melanieryding.blogspot.com/2012/08/olympics-cycle-time-trial-gamesmaker.html
Recipe of the month. Wednesday, 1 August 2012. Olympics Cycle Time Trial: the Gamesmakers view. This was the only shift I had that was not in central London, I was not looking forward to the drive to Esher, the 40 mile stretch of the M25 Car Park, or the queues to get through the road closure. I arrived at just after 8am so not too bad all things considered. Wouldn't want to be doing it too often though. But hey, this is the Olympic Games, right? This doesn't happen too often, does it! Cyclists aplenty i...

Melanie Ryding, GB Age Group Triathlete: Womens Olympic Marathon: the Gamesmaker’s view
http://melanieryding.blogspot.com/2012/08/womens-olympic-marathon-gamesmakers-view.html
Recipe of the month. Sunday, 5 August 2012. Womens Olympic Marathon: the Gamesmaker’s view. I have up till now, arrived at the tube station before the driver and before the newspaper, but today, my shift started so early that I was there before the station was even open! Yep, the glorious night busses. Again. Unfortunately, due to it being a Sunday, it was nowhere near as easy getting from A to B, and I needed to change busses at Hounslow. I had no idea what Hounslow was like, but now I do! We learned th...

Melanie Ryding, GB Age Group Triathlete: Mens Olympic Triathlon: the Gamesmaker's view
http://melanieryding.blogspot.com/2012/08/mens-olympic-triathlon-gamesmakers-view.html
Recipe of the month. Tuesday, 7 August 2012. Mens Olympic Triathlon: the Gamesmaker's view. The men’s triathlon started a lot later in the morning, but no, this did not mean a lie in, as the gamesmakers had to be in place at the same time of day, sue to a scheduled course recce for the elite men prior to their race. I was pleasantly surprised to see several other gamesmakers that were also going to Hyde Park, also get on the same train, we even recognised each other! And there were already people forming...

http://melanieryding.blogspot.com/2012/07/monday-night-sport-bbc-radio.html
Recipe of the month. Monday, 30 July 2012. Monday Night Sport: BBC radio Northampton interview. Monday Night Sport: BBC radio Northampton with Geoff Doyle and Laura Cook. I was invited to the studios in Northampton to be on the show, all Olympic theme, due to the fact that I am a Games Maker, and because I recently found out that I got onto the GB team for the world championships for a fourth consecutive year. It all sounds so easy when you are just listening to it! I spent 40 minutes in the studio with ...

Recipe of the month. Tuesday, 19 June 2012. Collecting the Olympic Gamesmaker Uniform.

Links to this post. Thursday, 14 June 2012. Finding the positives in the negatives. Another go at the same 10 mile time trial As a few weeks ago, however this one not quite to plan. The Suf...

Melanie Ryding, GB Age Group Triathlete: Blood sweat and gears: the day I almost quit
http://melanieryding.blogspot.com/2012/07/blood-sweat-and-gears-day-i-almost-quit.html
Recipe of the month. Sunday, 22 July 2012. Blood sweat and gears: the day I almost quit. It's been a hard year, I suppose you have guessed that already. In fact, it was only today, when a friend congratulated me on gaining a spot on the GB team for my fourth world championships that she also reminded me how well I had done, considering I lost a whole season to the head injury last year. I just didn't know what to do. I exited the swim in 4th, exited T1 in 3rd, started the run still in 3rd, and ended the ...
