Unfortunately shoulder complications meant I had to withdraw from my main event, the 3km open water swim. Hoping physio and rehab will sort it out soon.

Swimming isn’t always about winning — it’s about showing up, racing, making friends and loving the sport.

Proud to rank Top 10 in most of my events in South Africa for the 40–44 age group!

Destiny’s Water Point at Thru the Karoo this past Saturday 💧🏃‍♂️

What an incredible day out in the Karoo sun! From the early starters to the final runners pushing through, it was such a privilege to be part of this amazing run.
