| How many years have you been in Triathlon? | 3 years. |
| Why did you start? | I saw an article in the Herald Sun on 6 weeks to your first triathlon, and thought it sounded like a good idea, as I was getting too old for team sports. |
| What's your favourite race? | Portarlington. |
| What's your favourite leg? | Bike, I have a chance to catch my breath after my usual crap swim. |
| If you could win one event in the world what would it be? | Phuket Triathlon as it's somewhere exotic. |
| What's your favourite drink? | Sports drink or beer (depends on whether it's before or after training). |
| What's your best race? | Portarlington or last Sprint race at Brighton. |
| Is there something you eat which you shouldn't? | A lot of lollies and cakes. |
| Who is your idol? | |
| What's the funniest thing that ever happened to you in a race? | I thinks it's funny that I actually completed my first mini tri after swallowing a mouthful of sea water and throwing it up during the first km on the bike. |
| If you could change anything in Triathlon what would it be? | The expense. I can't keep up with all the gadgets. |
| If you could have any kind of car what would it be? | A motorbike (Yamaha Fireblade) |
