I had never completed a triathlon before, and a year out from my 2000 kilometre in 12-day Ultimate Triathlon, I thought it would be a good idea to get a multisport event under my belt. I decided to take on The Double Brutal Extreme Triathlon. This double Ironman distance race (8km swim, 375km bike, 85km […]
Hainan is an island located in the South China Sea. The small province of the People’s Republic of China has many beautiful beaches, rainforests, and mountains, which were the reason I went there.

This was my first real big adventure. I spent eight days in Guatemala climbing active volcanoes and seeing some of the beauty the country has to offer. I spent most of my time in the second largest city Quetzaltenango, which is at the base of The Santa Maria Volcano, the 4th highest Volcano in Guatemala […]
Are you truly living life? When we are children, I’m sure most of us had big dreams, goals, and things we believed we could achieve as we got older. Whether it was a career, destination to visit, or to emulate one of our heroes, as kids, we believed nothing was impossible, and living life inevitable. […]
3 key reasons why you should build a team I used to think that asking others for help made me weak, that I could do everything my way and myself, and I didn’t need to build a team around me, I was wrong! Clearly I don’t know it all, my way is almost always […]
