I am a recreational vet runner coming back from injury and turning to triathlons and other adventure sports such as gig rowing for fun, fitness, weight loss. I am also an amateur photographer trying to master my camera and GoPro to produce some great images in future. This blog will follow my fitness progress as well as blogging and taking photos and videos of interesting events on holiday or in the beautiful surroundings of Cornwall.
