A blog dedicated to my gorgeous twin boys, my stunning wife and my sport of triathlon.
A thought - "If God invented marathons to keep people from doing anything more stupid, then the Ironman must have taken Him by surprise and Marathon Des Sables must have completely dumbfounded Him"
From the Ironman running rules "1. No form of locomotion other than running, walking OR CRAWLING is allowed"

An outdoors man
(Courtesy of Ian Hay)
During his physical examination, a doctor asked a man about his physical activity level.
He described a typical day this way:
"Well, yesterday afternoon, I took a five hour walk about 7km through some pretty rough terrain.
I waded along the edge of a lake. I pushed my way through brambles.
I got sand in my shoes and my eyes.
I avoided standing on a snake. I climbed several rocky hills.
I took a few 'leaks' behind some big trees.
The mental stress of it all left me shattered.
At the end of it all I drank eight beers"
Inspired by the story, the doctor said,
"You must be one hell of an outdoors man!"
"No," he replied
"I'm just a shit golfer".
