Hey, it’s been tough lately but that’s no reason to give up completely. Yes, you can be relaxed if you have worked hard during the peak season, but there is still opportunity out there; even if somewhat reduced.<\/p>\n

Despite running around to do the last few elements of organisation ahead of Christmas I sat down behind my screen for the odd moment yesterday to keep my hand in on the racing. Not a great total but I know a lot of people who would be happy with it. I averaged \u00a320 a race which is no great shakes, but it soon adds up when you string a few together. I probably only spent less than five minutes on each race so the other way you could look at it was that I had to commit just over an hour of my time to do it. When you look at it that way, it’s not too shabby. I also ran some stuff on a spreadsheet to gather some market data for later analysis.<\/p>\n

Keeping your hand in can be useful but you should also use this spare time do more research, look at other sports, read up on some material etc. Being effective at anything is like making a house, you have to lay the foundations at some point. Go build some foundations!<\/p>\n
