The Captain InsaneO Challenge!!

I’d decided some time ago to add the Antarctic marathon into the schedule. I didn’t know how hard it would be to get in or even find the money to pay my way, but I just wanted to top off this trip by doing something completely ridiculous… The fact that they also have a 100km [...]

The Twin Peaks of Doom – Part 1

The Twin Peaks of Doom – Part 1

Leaving Pamplona was just what I needed. I was tired, my nerves were shot from Running with the Bulls and we needed to get some solid driving time in on Thursday, if we were to make it to Zermatt, Switzerland by Friday night. The next big adventure was about to begin in earnest, so I [...]

Bulls, Bravado & Two Times the Terror!

I’ll start from the start.. Well, from the start of the middle of the craziest couple of weeks of my life. I’m sure your life has been crazier at some point, but mine got pretty intense, so I’m gonna get excited about it anyway.
I met Bec Sherwill at Luton airport. It was probably Stansted airport, [...]

Thanks to Pete Lockyer for putting it together and reminding me how far I’ve come.

Rockin it at Roskilde & Kristianopel!

Wow!! What a weekend… That really was RunLikeCrazy at its craziest so far.. I’m just lucky I had some buddies to enjoy it with. To be honest, if Chip hadn’t have come to run with me, I think I would have failed this weekend.
So what happened exactly, you ask? Roskilde Music Festival happened, that’s what.. [...]

Head Cases & Random Places – Heading to South America..

Hey Everyone.
Well, I’ve been getting a lot of worried emails lately that I’ve disappeared. I even had a worried message from my Dad, which made me realise that it’s time to pull this ship back on course and start writing a whole lot more often.

Goodness Gracious, Great Walls Of FIRE – Marathon Report!

Yep, that’s the headline! I went there. Ha, too funny.. I reckon everyone should start a blog so they can come up with corny headlines. My lecturers at Ad School would be bloody horrified at the crap I come up with! Hehe..
I’m sorry you haven’t heard much out of me lately. I’ve got about 3 [...]

Heroes & Hazards – Paris to Boston

I know this is a little retrospective, but I’m not going to miss out on getting the great stories down from Paris, Boston, New York and London. So you’ll have to bear with me…

Eastern Bloc Party – Prague Marathon

Eastern Bloc Party – Prague Marathon

Getting out of Belfast was another lucky break. I’ve dodged so many bullets in the past few weeks, I’m beginning to feel like Neo in the Matrix. Maybe the Compeed blister bandaids do more than absorb blisters. Maybe they have made me unstoppable in general travel too!
I got to Boston a day or so before [...]
