Thank you for visiting my website.  After watching several Ironman races recently I am still at peace with my decision to retire, or at least take a sabbatical from Ironman racing!  2018 is a celebration of 30 years since my first triathlon, I remember racing several sprint and Olympic distance events that first year before moving on to Ironman distance racing in 1990. Despite lots of changes over the years I still love the sport and everything about it.

I think there is a good chance I may celebrate with a sprint distance race at some stage this year. I’m enjoying being fit and love thrashing it out in the pool and riding or running without the pressure of a goal, or wondering what the km/h average was on the bike or average pace/km when running. It’s quite refreshing going for a ride or run and not having to religiously think about hitting the start/stop button on my Garmin, or doing that extra loop or extra 25m in the pool to round the numbers up!
