I have run all my life, been active in numerous running & triathlon clubs, completed 5 Comrades Marathons, 3 Full distance Ironman races, 12 Half distance ironman races, 4 World Championships and much more besides. 

In South Africa I was treasurer of the Amanzimtoti Athletic Club for several years, race administrator for the Sappi Saiccor Marathon for 9 years, and in 2007 organised a fund-raising group which raised £100K by running 2 marathons (Dubai & London) in aid of Guide Dogs for the Blind.
