Hawaiian Sunset
Another Hawaii adventure is coming to an end. I’ve spent 9 weeks in Hawaii over the past 3 years and only now have I found that awesome beach I was sure were ten a dozen out here. The shot above … Continue reading
Kauai Recuperation
Getting my first week of complete rest following the race by chilling out on Kauai one of the most Northern of the Hawaiian Islands. This is an amazing island – being the oldest the elements have had a chance to … Continue reading
Finding My Limits
Here’s Paul and I chilling at the side of Alii drive watching the final finishers come in. Jane befriended a couple of local ladies with these awesome chairs. They went off to their car to get these extra chairs for … Continue reading

Espresso In The Pacific
Another entry hot on the heels of the last one. Todays picture is me in the parade last night. The parade is pretty good fun as parades go … largely because it’s not too long, it’s pretty informal and there’s … Continue reading
Hanging With The Stars
Allowing for a little poetic license the hanging with the star(fest) has started. Seeing so many of the top Ironmen hanging out is one of the things that makes the build up to this race so awesome. Here’s my tally … Continue reading
Queen K Heat
Yesterday I decided I was ready for a real acclimatization run and probably my last long run before the race. The plan was to run out along the Queen K highway in the heat of the day. This is something … Continue reading
