Last night I went out to a opening of a new bar/restuarant at the beachfront with a friend of mine and had a GREAT time.  It has been quite a while.
But although I totally enjoyed myself it reminded me of why I no longer go out that much.  It is hard work!  Don’t get [...]

What fun

It is my afternoon to volunteer at the children’s home and it feels like forever since I was last there. 
 
I saw the girls just before Ironman but that was only because I was doing it for that charity there was a press conference and photo shoot held at the home  It has been ages [...]

8 things!

Thankfully I was tagged by Shayne because I think I have gone brain dead with all these holidays.  I just can’t think of anything, never mind just blogging stuff.
 
So here it is.  It is a meme about 8 things.  The rules are simple (thankfully for a brain dead person) but even though they are simple [...]

My mom is faking an injury…….

Well at least, I keep telling her she is faking it.  She is just scared that I might actually beat her in the next race so has decided not to do it.  Hmph, given that this might be the time when I am at my absolute fittest and is probably the best chance I have [...]

Now how am I going to complain?

I loved being on holiday, and I am loving all the public holidays at the moment. 
 
There is only one problem.  It reminds me how much I like being at home.  It makes coming in to work very difficult.  I have been mumbling and moaning for the last 2 days (yes, that is all I [...]

Tsitsikamma Hike

Ok, so I am going to try and load more photo’s.  For some reason I could not get all of them posted last time.

Tsitsikamma Hike

 So I am back at work.  At least it is a VERY short week.  I might just manage……I had a fantastic time off though and it was a great break.  Of course the best part was seeing my sister, but the rest was pretty good too. 
 
Other than Ironman, we ate lots of sushi, went to [...]

Photos – Ironman Marquee

Here are some photo’s of the marquee that blew away during the Ironman South Africa run. I am not sure who took the photo’s as I got them on email.
 
 
Thankfully nobody was seriously injured, although quite a few people had to get stitches and things.  It could have been a lot worse and I think [...]

Race Day – The Run

After handing my bike to a young guy in transition I ran into the tent.  I was not changing again, except my shoes, socks, sunglasses and hat, but I wanted covered in sunscreen again.   I also needed to go to the loo.  The volunteers in the tents are awesome but besides the sunscreen I did [...]

Race Day – The Bike

I got my bike out of transition and headed for the road.  My goal for the bike was to average about 26 km/hour.  The course is 3 loops each of 60 km.  The first section is a “gentle” climb to the highest point on the course.  There is then a very nice down hill, and [...]
