Valentia Half Marathon
Getting to revisit my favourite island. This time running the hills with views of the Skelligs.
Welcome to my Blog
Capturing memories from around the world. Like marathons on every continent, climbing the world’s highest peaks, backpacking over 75 countries, an Ironman triathlon, multiday hikes, whitewater kayaking, bike touring, and lots of challenges in between. This is my story, and everything I've learned along the way.
Killarney Olympic Duathlon
Starting the triathlon season with a fast race through Killarney National Park, minus the water.
Rome Marathon
My first official marathon, with ancient wonders, cobbled streets and a heat stroked Brian!
Quest Kenmare
Time for more suffering! My second race of the Quest series in normally beautiful Kenmare.
Gap of Dunloe Half Marathon
The first race of the HARDMAN calendar; a hilly route through Ireland's most picturesque valley.
Quest Glendalough
Bike, run, bike, run, kayak, run! A whole new challenge through beginners eyes.
Valentia Triathlon As An Ironman
A return to Valentia for my favourite sprint triathlon, this time as an experienced triathlete.
100,000 Steps in a Day
How hard could it be?
Ireland's County Tops
Breaking the self supported record by climbing 32 peaks in one week. The ultimate Irish adventure.
Killarney Full Ironman
My journey from complete beginner to finishing Ireland's most scenic Ironman distance triathlon.
Bantry Half Ironman
My jellyfish nightmare. An itentionally brutal race that's set on a remote airplane landing strip.
Waterville Half Ironman
My go to recommendation for a longer distance race, tough as hell, but absolutely worth it!
