750 Miles to Boston

On January 23, 2012 By

The average April temperature for a Boston marathon is 50 degrees.  Fahrenheit.  That’s 10˚C.  Seems like a world away from the 40˚C we’re about to start getting here.  It’s getting hot and staying hot.  As of Tuesday it won’t drop below 24˚C for the remainder of the week.

Next on the Agenda…?

On December 11, 2011 By

Now that Ironman is over, you may be thinking what could be next on the agenda…?

How about reliving parts of the moment (the running and swimming) in Busselton by competing in the local Bussselton Half Marathon and Busselton Jetty Swim?

Both events are over the first weekend in February, namely the 4th and 5th [...]
