A date with Death
Last weekend I attempted the Tip Track Marathon again - 6 laps up and down one of the hardest, most notorious tracks in Wellington.
Last year I managed 3 laps before my body quit. How far would I get this year?
Check out the video to find out.

Don't forget to check out my Dad's blog
Who else can tell you stories about impersonating an officer, stealing a military aircraft to go on a booze run, or steal military aircraft and go on an unsanctioned bombing run - and that's all before he turned 18!

3 again!!!
Yeah I know.
I did a lot of hill training for this. But it just wasn't enough.
The hill is brutal on your legs and lungs. And the Hokas I was wearing didn't help. they are too big and wide for technical trail stuff, so my feet were being twisted on each step.
Next time I'll train on the ACTUAL hill and have better shoes. If there is a next time next year. There is another race on November - 100km that I want to do as well. So it will just depend on the dates.
Hats off to anybody that runs and especially on this terrain - I will not even make 100m
How is your Dad going, mate? Haven't heard from him in a while.
