I fulfilled one of my dreams by running to the top of Mt Kosciusko and back just two days after a Canberra Marathon and all these runs I must say are done without a stop. I have run the one hundred-kilometre running leg of the Sri Chinmoy Peace Triathlon in Canberra in eleven hours, the Sydney Olympic Course Marathon in three hours sixteen minutes and the Gold Coast Marathon in three hours fourteen minutes, all in the space of seven months.

I ran the 10 kilometre leg of the 2004 Noosa triathlon in a team with one of my sons and against my youngest son. He had a 3 minute lead on me and ran a 50 minute 10 kilometre. I ran a 43 minute run (still can't beat the old man).
