The Rwanda Institute for Conservation Agriculture is a lovely design and an exemplar of robust low carbon construction. I just wish we did more of this in the UK and other wealthy countries.

You decide what to sacrifice for your next competition, for your life.

You decide what is more important, your wishes or your dreams.

You decide how far to go, whether it is up or down, that is your responsibility.

Coach: What you can't do is expect to have the physical condition and skills for a competition without sacrificing everything you mentioned earlier.

Everything is permissible, but not everything is convenient.
