2012 English Channel Swim

7 - 14 September 2012



After having cycled through Africa, completed 5 Ironman Triathlons, run the Comrades Ultra Marathon, Climbed Kili ... I have decided to take on a slightly tougher option ...



... 34km of cold, open water swimming ... leaving the coast of the eternal "wanna-be" soccer nation, over to the "frogs" on the other side ...

Argus Cycle Tour ... no. 22

Coming up soon is more mountain biking and my 22nd Argus Cycle Tour. The endless hours on the bike are starting to take their toll ... i reckon my grumpy demeanor is related to the training and stress from work and relationship issues ... why does this always seem to happen to endurance athlete enthusiasts ...?

First we still have to do the Cape Town to Sea mountain bike ride ... a nice weekend out of mainstream civilization and hopefully another Robben Island swim if everything goes well.

... and hold your breath and come back soon ... hopefully another crazy project to be announced soon ... i might dive into 18 months of swimming and endless cold water experiences ... ;-)
