Number 2! No shit!

Somehow, some reason hard to finish off the race today but very pleased with the age group win and overall second! Tanzanians are hard to beat afterall ;) My time 2:47:59 offical. I'd say I'm disappointed, and I am, but can't be too much so as I'm surrounded by family and friends in paradise and on to my 4th schooner, no they aren't boats.

Thanks as always, talk later Scott.

  2. Well done Scott - sounds like you had a tough day. The only chance I have of getting second place is in a 2 horse race.

  9. We have Schooner(s) here! Both kinds too but I actually prefer a Guinness after a hard race. Well done!

  10. Mate, that's a brilliant result! I feel like I'm talking to royalty - imagine, I know someone who can get onto the podium!

    I can understand that you were hoping for a better time, but don't let that tarnish what should be sheer exhilaration on a brilliant time with a fantastic result!

    I was certainly drinking with you - albeit in Sydney.....
