“The best combination of sport and travel!”
“Good thing about sport, you meet people. It gives you a chance to travel, to new places you haven’t been.”
“One of the best experiences of my life!”
“Since I started the journey in 2013 with the Masters Games it’s been one of the most marvellous experiences of my life. Apart from getting married and having children. It’s fantastic!”

“This year I have hit times I haven’t hit for years. You can still always challenge yourself and do better. There’s just no excuse. You can pick up a new sport, have a go at something different.”
