A lot of people have been wondering why I didn't post anything since the end of 2010.. It was nothing personal, just about completely burned myself out by the end of the year, so it has taken a lot of time to re-energise and get myself to re-engage... With you, with life and of course, [...]
Well in case your Swedish isn't as strong as you'd like I translated it persoally(read used Google translator) - Nick He joined the Coast Marathon in Kristianopel with 26 in the marathon legs. Took around at just under four hours and did not even out of breath after finishing. "Today was a workout. I can [...]
Today was a great day! I went to the press conference for the Dubai Marathon and they had a very special guest.. World champion, current world record holder, running god and all round top human being, Haile Gebrsellasie! We were invited to the press conference by Alan Ewens, official publicist for the marathon and all [...]
India... What an amazingly chaotic place?! I'm guessing that Lorenz and Mandelbrot both visited Bombay (now named Mumbai), as they worked on the basis for chaos theory. You can't help looking around thinking, "How the hell does everyone get where they're going??" And yet, among the madness, there are certainly patterns that allow people to [...]

I've seen some pretty interesting stuff in our world. I'm a lucky guy and good things have always happened in my life. Bad shit happened too, but I think the good stuff far outweighs it all. The last week has been one of the most eye-opening, enlightening weeks of my life. It has been jam [...]
Australian Test Captain, cricketing God and all round Australian hero, Ricky Ponting, has heard about our exploits and wanted to wish us luck in Mumbai: “Good luck guys for your run through the streets of Mumbai. It’s one of my favourite cities in the world and I’m sure you will do Australia proud”. Thanks Ricky! [...]
Number 2… Tiberias, Israel. Wow, that hurt! I was running well from the start, but it was a freak hot day in an otherwise mild Israeli Winter. They say it only reached 26 degrees, but with the sun beating down, it felt a whole lot hotter. The later the race got, the more I struggled [...]
Really did have to tough that one out. 3:52.35 It was hot and hard, but there was a great atmosphere and the people were brilliant. Go Israel! More tomorrow. I need a rest. http://www.4sport.co.il/cgi-bin/Es?Id=03ZvkcVAYseEkd1HOw16tqraUwNv&GOSS=%E7%F4%F9&NAMSS=Tristan+Miller Thanks for the link and the support Hadas!
