| Introduction | From a schoolboy rugby player, turned referee, tried my hand at indoor rowing and now a club cyclist and runner trying to work out just how far I can push this aging body of mine. I'm not that tall, I'm fairly lightweight light, but I'm generally in the top 25-30% of the pack. Trying to do my best to keep fit, have fun and be healthy, a particular challenge since 2013 with a diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes at 39 years old. Treading the fine line between trying everything and excelling at nothing. This blog will be a mix of sporting endeavour, diabetes management, my travels around the world and anything else I think of at the time. |
| Interests | Reading, writing, running, rowing, cycling, yoga, wine, beer |
| Favorite Movies | Pretty much anything by Alfred Hitchcock |
| Favorite Music | It's gotta have a decent melody. A decent song is poetry set to music. The Moody Blues, Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Chris Rea, Loius Armstrong... |
| Favorite Books | Life is too short to have one favourite book. I just read as much as I can, and hope that I enjoy it all. |
