I just love it here ! So much so that I want to be outside training or walking at every available opportunity. My background is all sport, I was training and competing to a high standard for over 15 years. In 1987 I realised my life's first ambition when I represented Wales at cyclo cross, since then I've represented my country in another five sports, triathlon, mountain biking, duathlon, mountain running and marathon kayaking. I was also a Welsh/British champion in another two aquathlon & orienteering as well as winning county athletic titles in the 5000 metres (track) and cross country. I retired from racing seriously in the spring of 2001 after reaching my goal of becoming a world champion in the veteran's category in the sport of quadrathlon (swim, kayak, bike & run). Inside Welsh Sport magazine suggested in 2009 that I have been 'Wales' fittest man ever'. Since then I have gone on to sports development and coaching in my areas of expertise and have worked for a 3 years as director/coach & everything else in Neath Port Talbot College running a successful triathlon academy there. Along the way there has also been private training & coaching several individuals on a part time basis. On the employment side my official title is 'company director'. Since 1991 I've run a company called Rugby Relics that is the world leader in the sales of Rugby Union Memorabilia.

Judy Garland in the guise of Dorothy once said
"there's no place like home" and I agree. I've travelled the
globe but I've yet to visit a country with so many varied terrains and
wonderful places within easy access of 90% of the population as Wales.
