| How many years have you been in Triathlon? | 18. |
| Why did you start? | To get fit. Still working on that one… |
| What's your favourite race? | Hawaii. |
| What's your favourite leg? | Swim. |
| If you could win one event in the world what would it be? | Hawaii. |
| What's your favourite drink? | Red wine, Coopers Pale, Cascade Premium (is there a pattern emerging here?) |
| What's your best race? | Canberra ’95 – probably time to update this answer. |
| Is there something you eat which you shouldn't? | Hot ham and cheese roll and a can of V at a 7-11 after a big night out. Mmmmm, artificial flavouring…. |
| Who is your idol? | A tie between Mum and Dad. |
| What's the funniest thing that ever happened to you in a race? | Finishing the swim many moons ago at a Sandringham race – the weather was atrocious and there was a lot of chop. As I’m heading for shore, I feel someone bump into my leg. As we stand up, PB Wilson is yelling abuse at me because it was his head that connected with me and he nearly managed to put his eye out. Apparently his poor navigation was my fault. |
| If you could change anything in Triathlon what would it be? | I’ve never beaten PB. I aim to change this soon, starting with the swim leg. |
| If you could have any kind of car what would it be? | A Subaru Impreza, complete with the bumper sticker “I kicked PB’s sorry arse”. |
