May goal: 24:15 (smashed at 23:22!) April best time: 24:26 23/05 – 25:03 (full results) Definitely a slower run today, but hey after smashing into the 23’s last week I figured a nice comfortable run will do me just fine 🙂 Read: I was a bit lazy today. 16/05 – 23:22 (PB) (full results) Over 1 min off my previous PB of 24:26…ran for the first time in my new trainers. I think I like them 🙂 23:22, wow man I was not expecting that! 23:22…enough said. Did I mention…

General stuff about this and that.
My dog. My friend. My companion. Mal. What a rock star this chap is and today is his first birthday. In the few months he has been with me he has won me over time and time again with his loving nature, fun spirit and his mischievous streak. Puppies can be challenging. This one is no different. But lots and lots of smiles to go with it. My office chair lost some wheels. My neighbour’s Mum lost some slippers (he actually did a super stealth ninja move one morning into…
Wishing you special Mum’s a very happy Mother’s Day today. As a son to all you Mothers, thank you. Thank you for always being there, never judging us, guiding us, giving us inspiration, hope, laughter, joy, a home to feel safe in and a home to come back to. And above all, for loving us unconditionally. Love you Mum x

April goal: 24:40 (smashed at 24:26!) March best time: 24:48 25/04 – 24:37 (PB) (full results) Good run today! 11 seconds off my PB so pretty chuffed with that. Good strong run with Kian again through the bush and especially along the front. That is definitely helping my times! So thinking now about next month’s goal, also keeping in mind I’ll probably only have one or two races in May as I’m away. Lets aim for 24:15 in May I think. Or perhaps what I’ll do is run with Jean and…
THIS is on the bucket list. In fact, I’m keeping an eye out for some whales and a flat day with clean water right here at home…one day… soon I hope.
March goal: 24:55 Feb best time: 25:09 28/03 – 25:34 (full results) Quite a bit slower than last week and I thought I was going to be close to 25 flat 🙁 Hey ho. Was a good run and a decent time so happy days 🙂 21/03 – 24:48 (full results) SUB 25min! Wow. Thanks to Benj for all the runs we been doing and to Henry on Saturday for helping with some motivation up the hill to the finish! Was a great morning for running and having done a strong…
March already…in fact second week of March… ouch. I still got a post in my draft folder that I need to post that was originally titled “January pics and news”… now reads..” Jan & Feb pics and news”…. oh dear you can see where that is going! So after a lovely day out today and a really nice weekend I though I really can’t not post some pics just because I not had time write up Jan and Feb… so here you go! Today I spent a lovely day out…
Whoop whoop. First dive since December. Tough conditions with the wind chopping things up good and proper but it was clean and warm so happy days. Took this fella (Blue fish) at about 8-10m on a bit of reef in the middle of the bay at KB. Not huge but got two great fillets off him 🙂 Saw a beauty of about 4kg+ on the same spot but with the wind it was really difficult to stay on the reef and I lost the mark before I saw it again……
