EDITORS NOTETablE Of CONTENTS KERRy KEIghTlEy

Welcome to Motion Magazine, the Sunshine Coasts premier Sports and Dining

publication.

In todays society we are constantly

bombarded by media outlets spruiking

filtered, heavily biased information

and pay to promote style

recommendations. Motion

Magazine steadfastly rejects this current trend; we will discard

mediocrity and provide the Sunshine Coast region with a

publication that has integrity.

Within our pages you will find renowned athletes, celebrities

and chefs. Our expert column writers will keep you informed

of all the latest news in regards to your most loved sports

and the hottest new dining trends. We will introduce you to

our regions best athletes and award winning chefs as well

as providing you with an insight into their high pressure and

demanding worlds. We will take you on a tour through our

regions best dining destinations whilst stopping by our most

well respected providers of sporting equipment, products

and services. Our goal, apart from providing a stellar read, is

to create awareness, to educate and also to inspire. We will

achieve this by allowing you access into the world of some of

the most inspirational individuals on the planet.

A little about myself, my name is Kerry Keightley and I am

the editor of Motion Magazine. I like every one of us, has

faced and overcome adversity in life, from breaking my

vertebrae (spinal C6 and C7) and having to basically learn

how to walk again, to overcoming an auto immune disease

that truly took its best shot of sending me to an early grave.

Through these hard times I turned to the inspirational stories

of others to motivate me, to keep me focused on creating a

positive belief system that one day I would be healthy enough

to be able to walk again. I am hoping that through Motion

Magazine you, the reader, will gain the inspiration needed

to start your own journey along the path towards achieving

your goals and dreams in life. Your dreams may seem simple

like mine were, that is, having the desire to walk again, for

others, their dreams may be more complicated, like wanting

to win a world title. Whatever your dreams are you will only

ever achieve them if you let go of fear, allow yourself to be

inspired and walk the path towards your dreams one step at

a time. Remember to forgive yourself when things go wrong,

appreciate yourself when things go right, and always look for

the positive things in your life. No matter how bad things may

seem there is always something in your life you can be grateful

for, your health, your family, your friends, the place you live,

the weather, the roof over your head or even just the clothes

on your back. As you will find by reading this magazine, many

of the worlds most influential and inspirational people started

with much less than you have today.

So once again welcome to Motion Magazine, please sit

back, make yourself comfortable and come on a sporting,

culinary and inspirational journey with us. Please follow us on

What does the 1982 Commonwealth Games and up-coming 2018 Gold Coast

Games have in common? Silly

question you say, but believe me

the answers will help Queensland

and Australia for many years to

come. Firstly, the event is a great

tradition for countries that make

up the Commonwealth. Secondly,

its being held in Queensland a

State known for hosting great and

successful events. Thirdly, and

most importantly the legacy that

will linger for many years to come.

Having been involved behind

the scenes in 1982, especially

in the lead-up with fundraising,

promotion and marketing, I know

first-hand how Brisbane changed

the attitude of most Aussies and

gave the country some much

needed pride. The day Matilda

winked its way into the hearts

of everyone who sat glued

watching the opening ceremony.

The event also gave State and

National politicians a boost as

well, running off the International

exposure gained by the massive

media coverage. Business

opportunities and confidence

sky-rocketed, and surely played a

role in securing and hosting Expo

1988. Competitors like Robert De

Castella, Kenrick Tucker, Dean

Lukin, Glynis Nunn-Cearns, Robert

Kabbass, Raelene Boyle, Lisa

Kenny and of course the Mean

Machine all playing a golden role in

Australias domination.

That winning culture flowed

over with Australia winning the

Americas Cup, Davis Cup,

Crickets Ashes series, Rugby

Leagues Kangaroo Tour, Greg

Norman started his blitz on

World Golf, Rugbys Grand Slam

4 Nations Tour, Queensland

finally beating New South Wales.

Yes it was the start of a great

era for Australia, brimmed with

confidence on and off the field.

A fact most arent aware of is

the venue for the proposed

QE2 Stadium nearly didnt get

built at Mt Gravatt. In 1976, a

delegation of Sporting officials

were summoned by then mayor

Clem Jones to tour Brisbane and

select the best possible site. After

a day long bus tour, the officials

entered Mr Jones office with their

preference, Marchant Park

near Aspley. The Mayor

quickly poured water on that

option, telling them that

Mt Gravatt/Sunnybank

would be the venue.

Work started and when

built produced a major

up-set in its first big hit-out in

1977. When a skinny sprinter from

Redcliffe Paul Narracott up staged

the 76 Olympic Champion Hasely

Crawford over the 100 metres in a

special meet to launch the facility.

The Stadium and other Games

venues are still in use with most

producing plenty of Champions

since 1982.

The Gold Coast is all guns blazing

with work already started on new

Venues and up-grading of others.

6,700 athletes from 71 Countries

competed in India at the last

Games and who knows how many

will be lured to the Gold Coast.

The Sunshine Coast must start its

campaign to be part of and share

the Games legacy. South East

Queensland will benefit the most

but we will have to set up a plan to

maximise

any or

all opportunities. There were 22

different Sports represented at

the annual Sport Star of the Year

Awards in February. I believe we

will have at least 12 in next years

Glasgow Games, with Sports

ranging from Athletics, Swimming,

Lawn Bowls, Boxing, Netball and

Sevens Rugby. Participation will

be the key as all the 2018 Games

athletes will come from today,

tomorrow and the future. Getting

them interested and involved is the

first step, and the level they reach

will be their decision. That is the

Legacy Im talking about.

Take care, till next time Benny

Writing this column gives me great pleasure as I get the chance to talk about my love of

the ocean and my passion for

our Sunshine Coast beaches. I

do feel fortunate to have landed,

which to me is a dream job, the

position as a lifeguard supervisor

here on the Sunshine Coast. This

position requires me to help plan

and strategize the best ways to

keep the public safe whilst they

indulge in a day at the beach. It

also means that I witness some

amazing events that occur here

on our beaches.

Through my column I will

endeavour to provide you the

reader with an idea of what has

been or will be happening on our

coast beaches, but before we

look forward I would like to take

this opportunity to briefly recap

the events of the Summer just

past.

Our Lifeguard service is made

up of some great characters

ranging from current and former

Nutra-Grain Ironman/Women to

current and former Pro surfers.

On staff are also some individuals

that have been watching over

our beaches for the good part

of two decades. Last summer

having a plethora of beautiful hot

days was our busiest for many

years and it took all of this ocean

expertise and knowledge to keep

our beaches safe. That beautiful

weather however turned feral on

Australia Day with a huge amount

of rain bucketing down, wind

and large seas quickly turned our

beaches into a mess and caused

some serious erosion.

This erosion made it very difficult

for a lot of events such as the

State Surf Life Saving titles,

which were supposed to be at

Maroochydore but were forced to

be held at the Spit on Mooloolaba

Beach, where once again

our coast athletes performed

extremely well and did the

Sunshine Coast proud!

Speaking of Surf Life Saving

events it was also great to see

our local Ironmen/Women do

extremely well in the Nutra-Grain

Series. This series showcased two

of our beautiful beaches, Coolum

and Noosa, and It also gave local

fans the chance to get up close

and personal to their heros and

witness just how fit and skilful

these guys and girls really are.

The Sunshine Coasts Surf

Lifesaving scene is going from

strength to strength and I am

confident we will have state,

national as well as ironman and

women champions come from our

region for many years to come.

Talking about all things in regards

to the ocean our local surfing

scene seems to be also be going

from strength to strength. I have

noticed just how many grommets

and young crew are becoming

involved in our boardriding clubs

and I am positive it wont be long

until we see our next Julian Wilson

emerge onto surfings biggest

stage!!

Looking forward, we are starting

to head into the colder months

but please keep taking care on

our beaches and remember to

swim between the Red and Yellow

Flags. Lastly, go say hello to your

local Lifeguards and get to know

them!!

April 1.indd 1 2/04/2013 11:30:08 AM

Welcome to the inaugural update from the Falcons Nest, the home of Local Rugby

League and Footy 4 Families

on the Sunshine Coast. We look

forward to the opportunity of

keeping you informed on all things

local footy, but before we talk

about the current it is important to

reflect briefly on the past.

Rugby League was born on

the Sunshine Coast on Monday

the 8th of March 1920, when

at a North Coast Rugby Union

meeting held at the Club Hotel in

Nambour it was decided by some

to adopt the new game, and so

Rugby League in this area was

born. The clubs were made up

primarily of players and volunteers

from hard working farming, fishing

and logging families. In those

days families would happily load

up the truck or horse and buggy

for a 3 hour, twenty kilometre trip

to the Footy for an away game

and some social interaction

between local communities.

As you can see Rugby League

on the Sunshine Coast has been

integral to the community spirit

and social culture that makes life

on the Sunny Coast what it is

today. From its humble beginning

early last century, and through

generations since, families have

gathered on the grassy hills of

their local parks to watch their

local legends play this great

game. For many decades it was

picnic blankets, with mums

homemade treats on offer, and

kids kicking the footy around

while their local heros gave their

all.

93 Years on and the League is

stronger than ever. There are 16

senior clubs and 13 junior clubs

spanning from Caboolture in the

South to Gympie in the North and

out to Kilcoy in the West. In fact,

our Junior League has grown to

be the second largest

junior competition in QLD.

In 2013, the world we live

in barely resembles the one

inhabited by those in

attendance at the Club

Hotel all those years

ago. Progress has

led to regression for some

of the basic foundations

of life and family that once

were a given. Our cars may be

faster, communication has taken

a vastly different and ever evolving

direction, and our footy paddocks

have become maintained fields.

Mums and Dads are working

more hours, technology is

stealing active outdoor time

from our kids, and consequently

quality family time and community

participation has become a

casualty for many.

There is one thing however that

hasnt changed. Footy is still for

Families!!

It is acknowledged that the

brakes cant be easily applied to

the furious wheels of progress,

just as they cant be to our desire

of ensuring that community based

sport will positively contribute to

the foundation of social fabric for

those that follow us.

So do your family a favour. Dust

off the picnic blanket, (or borrow

your mums), and get along to

a local Rugby League game in

2013. Its a family tradition !!!

Welcome to my first edition of, Tri Tales. My hope is to keep you all informed on the latest

happenings in the world of triathlon

on the Sunshine Coast. I am

originally from Sydney, NSW, but

moved up here ten years ago with

my husband to pursue my career

as a professional athlete.

Why Noosa? Well I had been

up here several times to race

the iconic Noosa Triathlon, so

I knew the weather was perfect

for my outdoor job. It also has

an amazing road network and

the riding possibilities are endless

- from the coastal roads to the

beautiful hinterland. The best part

though is that many of these roads

have dedicated bike lanes.Peak

hour, as we know it in the big

cities, really does not exist here.

There are plenty of great outdoor

swimming pools and of course

the ocean gives you one endless

pool. By far one of my favourite

places is the Noosa National Park

where I can be known to disappear

running for hours.

I have seen the Sunshine Coast

really evolve as a triathlon training

mecca over the years. Triathletes

from around Australia and

overseas have been coming here

in droves and setting themselves

up for the summer and now the

winter as, lets face it, the Sunshine

Coast really does not have a winter

if you compare it to the bitterly cold

winters of Europe or the United

States. The sport of triathlon is

not just about swimming, biking

and running, it is about pursuing

a lifestyle that emphasises healthy

living.

We have so many amazing

triathletes, including past and

present World Champions,

Olympians, gold medalists who

base themselves here for a good

chunk of the year. Greg and Laura

Bennett have been coming here

for just on thirteen years now.

Pete Jacobs (the current World

Hawaiian Ironman Champion)

and his wife moved up here last

summer. Emma Snowsill and

her partner Jan Frodeno (both

gold medallists from the Beijing

Olympics) recently purchased a

house here. Javier Gomez, from

Spain (the current leader of the

ITU World Triathlon Series and

winner of this years Mooloolaba

triathlon) has been coming here

for years now to prepare for his

race season. Even the Brownlee

brothers from Great Britain (Gold

and bronze medallists from the

London Olympics) have spent

some time here in Noosa. We

also have David Dellow (winner of

Noosa triathlon in 2011) and his

partner Caroline Steffen (former

World Long Course Champion and

regular top 3 at the Ironman World

Champs) living just down the road

at Alexandra Headland.

What attracts these athletes?

The answer is obvious. The great

climate, the wonderful lifestyle

and the simplicity of living here on

the Sunshine Coast. The training

conditions are perfect; the food is

local, fresh and healthy and there is

such a great network of athletes to

train with. There are also so many

great events all year around like the

Noosa Winter Multisports Festival,

the Noosa Triathlon Festival,

Mooloolaba Triathlon, Mooloolaba

Ironman 70.3, Sunshine Coast

Running Series, Sunshine Coast

Marathon, Ocean Swim series ...

the list is endless these days.

When Justin and I first moved

up here, it only took a short time

before it became quite apparent

that we would never be moving

back to Sydney, and that Noosa

was now home. The lifestyle here

just cannot be beaten and you

dont have to be a professional

athlete to appreciate this. Justin

and I travel the world for a living

but the Sunshine Coast will always

be home for us.

In coming articles I will let you

know all of my favourite training

haunts, here on the coast, for

swimming, biking and running. Of

course, as with any athlete, food

and coffee are an integral part of

an athletes day, so I will also be

filling you in on all of my favourite

coffee spots up and down the

coast, and where we refuel for

breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Enjoy! Belinda

Ultra marathon runners are a breed on to their own, some may call them crazy, I prefer to

call them simply inspirational.

Recently, I caught up with one

of the Sunshine Coasts best

Ultra-Marathon runners Greg

Swan and gained some insights

into what makes these masters of

endurance running tick.

Greg after having a successful

running career in his teens,

turned away from his beloved

sport during most his early adult

years My injuries, mainly stress

fractures, eventually took their toll,

I basically didnt run from my early

twenties to early thirties. When I

turned 33 I was close to 25 kilos

overweight, one day I made a

promise to myself to turn my life

around, I simply decided to lose

weight and run the Gold Coast

Marathon, since then I have run

close to 50 marathons/ultras.

Gregs ultramarthion career has

taken him around the globe;

in fact, Greg has endured the

gruelling conditions put forth from

one of the most uninhabitable

continents on the globe, the

Antarctic. I had read about the

7 continents club and noticed no

Australian male had completed

Ultras in all continents and decided

that was my goal. The Antarctic

is somewhere you just wouldnt

normally go, yet it is so amazing, it

was like stepping onto the moon

when we first stepped off the

plane.

It amazes me that the human

body can withstand such extreme

conditions, and when asked what

training he did to prepare himself

for this torturous endeavour, Greg

nonchantly replied Some soft

sand running helps to toughen

the legs like running through snow

and I also tried an altitude training

machine.

Greg then described to me his

weekly training schedule, and to

be honest even just hearing the

kilometres he travels in a week

made me exhausted Usually I do

around 100 to 150kms a week

depending on my long run during

the week as well as pool running,

core strength, speed work and

hills.

Endurance athletes have to be

extremely mentally tough and

when I asked Greg what career

moment he holds closest to

his heart, his answer was very

indicative of this fact I ran the Las

Vegas marathon the week before

Antarctica and severely tore my

right calf muscle at 10k. At that

stage anything faster than walking

was too painful, yet I have never

not finished a race so I strapped

a bag on ice to my calf at the 32k

mark, and I pushed on as hard as

I could through the pain. I finished

the race in 3hr 59min 13secs

and struggled to hold back the

emotions in the last kilometre.

Greg will be heading off soon

to compete in the Great Wall of

China Marathon in May, before

racing 650km across the Simpson

Desert in September. Next year

Greg will be again racing over

240kms through the Sahara

Desert in Egypt. I dont think I will

ever completely know what goes

on inside the head of an ultra-

marathon runner but one thing

I know for sure, the word cant

does not exist in their vocabulary.

What makes a great personal trainer? After a long winded and heated debate with my

work colleagues we came to the

following conclusion, the most

important element a personal

trainer can have is that he or she

must sincerely care about who

they are training and genuinely

care about helping them achieve

their goals. We are all different,

we all need different forms of

motivation and training, the only

way a personal trainer can tailor

make suitable sessions is if they

genuinely care.

One such personal trainer that

embodies the above statement

is 25 year old Steven Page. Now

keep in mind Steven himself has

recently undergone three lifesaving

major surgeries for abdominal

issues, yet this hasnt stopped

him doing what he loves and that

is helping individuals with special

needs lead a healthier and fuller

life.

I am currently at university and

am working as a teachers aid

for special needs kids. I get so

much more of a rewarding feeling

working with special needs

individuals as you really see the

enjoyment on their face, you are

changing their lives forever.

Pagey is also currently training

Andrew, who was born with

down syndrome and according

to pagey is starting to kick some

major health and fitness goals

It has been all about Trust,

Andrew wouldnt really speak

or communicate with anyone

when he started, there is no easy

fix when it comes to earning

trust it simply takes time and

perseverance. I try not to ever

miss a session and I never let

anyone take my session with

Andrew when I am not there. I

want him to respect me and that

means me not putting him in

any situation where he may feel

uncomfortable.

Pagey tailor makes his sessions

to fit in with Andrews needs It

is essential to tailor make every

session no matter who your

training. The main thing with

Andrew is that instead of sitting

on a treadmill or something like

that we make up games together,

basically I just need to make it fun

for Andrew.

Andrew who when he first came to

Pagey couldnt run for longer than

a couple of minutes can now blast

out a good half hour session on

the cross-trainer, he is more open

and you can often find him shaking

hands and saying hello to other

regulars at the gym. Andrews

family have stated he is happier

and gets quite upset if he has to

miss even just one session. Pagey

even stated that Andrew is now

enjoying his other passion in life

more than ever, that is, competitive

ten pin bowling.

Pagey is a stellar example of

what does make a great personal

trainer. He genuinely cares, he

tailor makes his sessions, he is

supportive, caring and fosters a

spirit of fun and enjoyment into his

workouts. So if you are looking for

a personal trainer, my advice to

you is, get to know the personal

trainer your thinking of using, if

he seems to care about you like

pagey cares about his clients, you

have found a PT that will help you

achieve your goals and change

your life forever. Contact Pagey on:

As kids, my best mate Dave and I rode our bikes everywhere to school, the

local pool, the park, the shops,

you name it. Our favourite ride

however was simply around the

block, approximately 500m with

4 right hand turns; the trick of

course was to ride this no hands.

The first time I pulled it off was

on a 3 speed with cowhorn

handlebars, I thought I was Evil

Knievel. As I rounded the final

corner, looked back at Dave

and pumped my fist in the air

I assumed it was simply sour

grapes that he hadnt joined

in my celebration, in fact he

looked downright distressed, and

momentarily I found out why

as I ran straight up the back of a

parked car.

I spent that evening in hospital;

my bike went to the big scrap

heap in the sky and my parents,

some weeks later, after giving

me a huge dressing down and

docking my pocket money to pay

for damage to the car, bought

me my first racing bike 5 gears,

drop handlebars, about 2 sizes

too big, I could barely touch the

pedals.

Back then no one had heard of a

bike fit, if you could straddle the

top tube and reach the pedals

with bottom planted on saddle

the bike was considered the right

size and off you went. Today

bike fitting has become a science

the Retul 3D Motion Capture

System thats used by many of

the worlds best triathletes and

professional cycling teams actually

reads the body in motion, in three

dimensions whilst you ride your

bike. The data set thats gathered

(knee angle flexion & extension,

back angle, knee forward of foot,

etc) allows the fitter to make very

specific changes to the bike which

can increase power, minimize the

risk of injury and greatly improve

rider comfort and performance.

Bicycles come in many different

sizes, usually when being sized

for a bike in a shop, staff will

talk in terms of frame size as

measured along the top tube

52cm, 54cm, 56cm, etc, however

not all frames are built even. For

example, the stack (558mm)

and reach(395mm) of a 56cm

Cannondale SuperSix varies quite

significantly from a the stack

(589mm) and reach (387mm)

of a Specialized Roubaix. If the

stack of the bike is too deep youll

have a very hard time getting low

and aerodynamic important

for anyone whos serious about

their riding, critical for triathletes

where an overly high back angle

means that youll have to generate

additional power to overcome

aerodynamic drag and stay close

to your competition not good

when you then have to dismount

and run.

Welcome to the first edition of On Par with Peter Heiniger. Born and bred on the

Sunshine Coast, my passion for

the game of golf began from my

junior days at Nambour Golf Club.

I completed my PGA traineeship

at Keperra Golf Club in Brisbane

and later went on to be Head

Teaching Professional at the Hyatt

Coolum for 23 years, before

accepting my current position

as Teaching Professional at the

renowned Noosa Springs Golf and

Spa Resort. I hope you enjoy my

column.

Really, we have it all here on

the Sunshine Coast! Fantastic

beaches, restaurants and beautiful

weather. As locals we are spoilt

for choice - not to forget the golf

courses. The Sunshine Coast is

paradise for those looking for a

game as tourists are quite rightly

now starting to realise. Boasting

over a dozen 18 hole courses

and several par 3 courses, the

Sunshine Coast sets the standard

for all to follow. Kept in impeccable

condition all year round, each

course is distinctive in its own way

and will offer every standard of

golfer with their very own individual

challenge. Although indifferent

of late, the Tropical Queensland

climate provides ideal weather

12 months of the year, allowing

players to take advantage of what

the Sunshine Coast has to offer.

Impressive practice facilities are

a regular feature at most layouts

and driving ranges are welcome

inclusions. The level of coaching

available for those looking to

further enhance their game is

first class, with several award

winning and highly accredited

teaching professionals available

throughout the Sunshine Coast

at very affordable fees. As a result

the Sunshine Coast has nurtured

many successful golfers such

as 1992 British Open Champion

Ian Baker-Finch, LPGA Tour Star

Katherine Hull-Kirk, current US

PGA Tour player Steven Bowditch

and even Adam Scott who was

once a junior member of Twin

Waters Golf Club. The Sunshine

Coast very own Invincibles Junior

Golf tour as founded by President

Graeme Miller, paves the way for

our next wave of child prodigys.

The Tour provides them with the

experience of competition golf on

local Sunshine Coast courses.

The assortment of courses at

our disposal provides differing

standards to ideally suit the varying

standards of golfers. If it is an

enjoyable, not overly challenging

game that you are after,

recognised club courses such as

Horton Park, Headland, Nambour,

Beerwah and Tewantin - Noosa

come highly recommended at very

affordable prices. However, if you

are after a true test for your game

and price is not a concern, Noosa

Springs, Twin Waters, Pelican

Waters and Palmer Coolum should

be included on your bucket list.

Not only championship courses,

each provide accompanying luxury

accommodation and as such the

ideal location for a great golfing

getaway! If you havent so already,

come and test your game at

Queenslands golfing mecca the

Sunshine Coast and experience

for yourself what all the hype is

about.

The Noosa Yacht & Rowing Clubs Youthsail journey has seen a small river sailing program

for local kids grow from a modest

boatshed based weekend activity

into the largest Youth Sailing

program in the country. In fact, after

doing some research, I ascertained

that the program has enjoyed

around a 1000% increase in

participation numbers since 2005.

Many sporting codes have suffered

over the years, with the new

generation of young Australians

becoming obsessed with some

form or another of electronic

device. So how did Noosa, one of

the smaller clubs in Queensland

gain such growth?

I became involved in Youthsail

around 10 years ago when I

booked my then 10 year old

daughter into Learn to Sail classes

to give her the opportunity of

playing around boats just like I did

as a kid growing up in Sydneys

Pittwater. At this time Yachting

Australia was racing down the

High Performance Olympic Feeder

avenue with many of the larger and

wealthier Yacht & Sailing club youth

programs following suit. Noticing

that many of the kids that attended

the Noosa Yacht and Rowing

programs were there for the social

side of Sailing we designed an

alternative program far left of field

to what Yachting Australia was

focused on.

Youthsail designed a pathway

where the kids enjoyed the

sport of sailing without the usual

expense and stress on time

poor parents. We offered training

courses that qualified them as

Trainee Instructors, YA Assistant

Instructors, Safety Boat drivers and

later the School Based Traineeship

program that, with approval from

the Department of Education and

Training, allowed Year 10 and 11

school students to complete a Cert

II or Cert III in a Sport & Recreation

/ Sailing Coaching course whilst at

school. The encouraging part of this

approach was that kids remained

in the sport and many, after a few

years working in the program, got

the competitive urge, purchased

boats and began racing as part of

the Team Noosa Sailing Squad.

The Youthsail Program is now all

encompassing with a vast variety of

curriculums and pathways. There

are a number of courses both in

School Holidays and the School

Term starting with the little kids first

sailing experience in the YA National

Tackers Program for the 6-12 year

olds. Kids can then migrate to the

YA Start Sailing levels using club

owned Vagabond 2 sail training

dinghys and then progress to the

Start Racing and Better Racing

programs in both the Sabot (8 foot

entry level single sail dinghy) and

Laser (Olympic class single handed

dinghy) squads. Other programs

include The Disabled Access

program and the Youth Blazer 23

Development squad where young

sailors get the chance to race

amongst the senior club members.

This year Youthsail will complete

around 14000 lessons and is still

growing its not rocket science,

its sailing.

For your chance to WIN an ultimate learn to surf, surf groms pack!

VALUED AT $250! Ages 5 to 12.

In todays society, where media outlets bombard us with tales of destruction, decay and immorality,

it is refreshing to come across a

story that portrays the human spirit

in all its beauty and glory, one such

story is that of professional surfer

Bethany Hamilton.

October 31st, 2003, started

out like most other days for 13

year old Bethany Hamilton, as

along with her best friend Alana

Blanchard as well as Alanas

father and brother they headed

over to Tunnel Beach, Kauai for

their early morning surf session.

However, at around 7.30am on

this fateful day, Bethanys day

became far from normal when a

15 foot tiger shark attacked her,

severing her arm just below the

shoulder. The Blanchards helped

Bethany to shore where Alanas

father fashioned a tourniquet out

of a surfboard leash and wrapped

it around the stump of her arm,

before she was rushed to Wilcox

Memorial Hospital. By the time she

arrived at the hospital Bethany had

already lost over sixty percent of

her blood.

After spending seven days in

recovery at the hospital, Bethany

made it clear to everyone that

she was determined to return

to surfing. Less than one month

after the incident, this brave,

courageous and determined

young girl returned to her board.

Initially, she longboarded but

quickly moved to shorter boards

and adopted a custom-made

handle to make duck diving easier,

she adapted her paddling style

by adding kicking, adjusted her

hand positioning while standing

up on the board, and after figuring

out how to surf on a shortboard

with one arm, on January 10,

2004, she entered a major surfing

competition.

The unassuming Bethany, when

questioned about how she

managed to overcome such a

horrific accident and return

to her beloved

sport of surfing

replied I

know this

may sound

crazy but I knew God

was in control and

that he had a plan for

my life, this brought

me an overwhelming

sense of peace.

I knew God would turn something

so disastrous into something

beautiful. There were some hard

and frustrating times but I just kept

focusing on the positives like the

fact that I am still alive.

The physical injuries that Bethany

had to overcome were nothing

short of what most would call

insurmountable, however, Bethany

explained that When I was

younger it was easier to adapt, as

I grew older and became a woman

the training necessary to keep my

alignment correct became very

demanding. I loved the fact that

it challenged me, I found fun in

the process of taking care of my

body.

Bethany wrote about her

experience in the 2004

autobiography Soul Surfer: A True

Story of Faith, Family, and Fighting

to Get Back on the Board. In

April 2011, the feature film Soul

Surfer was released based on the

book and additional interviews.

Soul Surfer received critically

acclaim and quickly became an

international blockbuster movie.

I found making the film fun and

challenging, I helped cast Anna

Sophia Robb, the actress who

played me and I did all the one-

arm surfing stunts myself

I asked Bethany how it felt to

know that she has inspired and

changed the lives of millions of

people around the globe, and

once again the very humble

Bethany replied I dont invest too

much time considering the impact

I have on the world, I just try and

be the best person I can be. I am

a simple person and love living the

simple life

Bethany may enjoy leading the

simple life, but her achievements

since the attack are well far from

simple, they are breathtaking and

that of legend and folklore. Against

all the odds Bethanys surfing

career kicked major goals, winning

NSSA National Competitions,

Junior Pro Competitions, placing

5th at the US Open of Surfing

and 2nd in the Billabong ASP

World Junior Championship.

Furthermore, Bethany tackled

what is regarded as one of, if not

the heaviest wave in world, Banzai

Pipeline, placing 4th in the 2007

Womens Pipeline Championship.

Banzai Pipeline is a treacherous

and deadly break, in fact, more

people have died or been seriously

injured at pipeline than at any

other break on the planet.

The fact that Bethany managed to

achieve all these stellar results with

one arm, in extreme conditions,

competing against other full

bodied athletes, is an achievement

that in my opinion rates Bethany

Hamilton as one of the best

athletes ever to walk the earth.

I am obviously not the only

person that stands in awe of

this remarkable human being as

since the attack, Bethany has

also been a guest on numerous

television shows, including The

Biggest Loser, 20/20, Good

Morning America, Inside Edition,

The Oprah Winfrey Show, The

Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Today

Show and The Tonight Show, as

well as featuring in magazines,

such as, People, Time and

American Girl. Additionally, she

was the cover story in the premier

issue of niNe magazine. In 2004,

she won the ESPY Award for

Best Comeback Athlete and also

received the Courage Teen Choice

Award.

It seems Bethany is always on the

lookout for new challenges as she

is about to become an off road

racer and embark on the torturous

all female Rallys Aicha Des

Gazelles, considered as one of the

toughest female sporting events in

the world It was a little daunting

thinking about it at first but I have

always wanted to go to Morocco

and it will help raise money for the

charity of my choice, I am looking

forward to the challenge and am

really excited to be a part of the

rally.

Bethany runs a charity called

Friends of Bethany which is a

non for profit organisation that,

as Bethany puts it We assist

amputees and other shark attack

victims by sharing the hope and

love of Jesus Christ, we provide

encouragement packs, helpful

information and connect them

with relevant organisations and

companies. We do our best to

inspire people and to help them

with their self-esteem.

I know the humble and

unassuming Bethany would be

uncomfortable with me saying that

she is my Hero, but I am struggling

to find another term that embodies

who this amazing, inspiring and

caring individual is and that can

also encapsulate the beauty and

the light she brings to this world.

I know this may sound crazy but I knew god was in control and that he had a plan for my life

Against all experts opinions, against all odds, Dick Hoyt refused to take no for an answer,

he refused to listen to so called

expert opinion, and why should

he, that is his son that they are

wanting to condemn to a life in

institutions. Dick Hoyt showed the

world that with belief, faith and

most importantly love, you can

overcome any adversity life may

throw at you.

Rick Hoyt was born in 1962,

diagnosed as a spastic

quadriplegic with cerebral palsy

due to oxygen deprivation.

Immediately experts told Dick

and Judy Hoyt, Ricks Parents, to

institutionalise Rick as there was

no chance of him recovering or

ever being able to lead a normal

life. Dick and Judy Hoyt however

had other plans.

Dick Hoyt recognised almost

immediately that his sons eyes

would follow him as he moved

about the room; he knew that

regardless of Ricks physical

limitations inside he was

astute and alert. Dick pushed

administrators and fought tirelessly

to integrate Rick into the public

schooling system. Dick and Judy

would take their son sledding and

swimming, they even taught him

the alphabet and basic words,

like any other child. Dick Hoyt

through tireless perseverance

and commitment soon provided

concrete evidence to those so

called experts of Ricks intellect

and ability to learn like everyone

else.

Rick had always showed great

compassion for others, in fact,

in the spring of 1977 Rick told

his father that he wanted to

participate in a 5-mile benefit

run for a local Lacrosse player

who had been paralysed in an

accident; little did they know that

on this day their lives were going

to change forever. Dick agreed to

push Rick in his wheelchair, and

they finished all 5 miles, coming in

next to last. That night, Rick told

his father, Dad, when Im running,

it feels like Im not handicapped.

After seeing the joy in his sons

eyes, that sense of freedom of

truly feeling normal for the first

time his life, Dick knew what

he had to do. Over the ensuing

years Dick and Rick would

complete over 1,090 athletic

events, including, 70 Marathons,

30 Boston Marathons and 252

Triathlons, 6 of which were

Ironman distance. Dick and Rick

even biked and ran across the U.S

in 1992 completing a full 3,735

miles in 45 days.

How does someone who cant

walk or even stand for that

matter complete a Triathlon you

ask? Once again love knows no

boundaries and Ricks dad found

a way to make it happen. In the

swim leg Dick would tow his son

behind him in dingy, Dick made

a special two seater bike so Rick

could do the bike leg with him and

in the run leg Dick would push his

son in a custom made running

wheel chair.

2012 saw Dick now aged 72 and

his son Rick now 50 compete in

their 30th Boston Marathon, and

they have no plans of slowing

down just yet. Rick Hoyt was once

asked if there was anything in the

world he could do what would it

be, he replied The thing Id most

like is for my dad to sit in the chair

and I would push him for once.

This story basically mirrors the Hoyts, but revolves around an ambitious elementary school

athlete, Conner Green aged

7, who wants to complete a

triathlon with his younger brother

Cayden. A normal request for a

young active kid some might say,

however, Cayden Long aged 5

has cerebral palsy and cant talk

or walk.

Conner always had a dream of a

playing outside and riding bikes

with his brother, and after being

shown a kids triathlon page in

a local magazine by his mother,

Conner realised that this was his

opportunity to make his dreams

become a reality.

Conner was committed to his

path, and with ingenuity and

creativity Conner created a system

so his younger brother, could go

with him every step of the way,

from his first stroke in the water

to the final few feet of his run.

For the swim leg Conner built a

special harness which allows him

to tow his younger brother behind

in an inflatable raft, for the bike

leg Conner also designed a small

cart so he can again tow Cayden

along behind him and lastly for the

run leg Connor recruited a simple

stroller to push Cayden in.

On one faithful June day in 2011,

Conner and Caydens lives were

changed forever when they

participated in their first Triathlon

together. Since that momentous

day in 2011, the brothers have

now competed in more than

a dozen triathlons. This deep

brotherly love and commitment

to their cause cannot be broken,

if event organisers ever show

concerns over accommodating

the pairs special equipment,

Conner simply refuses to compete

alone.

Even though Cayden cant speak

or walk, Connor told ESPN he

knows when his brother is having

a good time because he can

see him smiling and laughing,

something that has happened

numerous times since the duo

began trialthloning together. The

boys mother said she thinks the

events have changed her younger

son for the better in a more lasting

way, too. I know its changed

him, Jenny Long told ESPN.

With the help of his brother, hes

found something he can do.

Recently brothers Conner Green

and Cayden Long of White House,

TN were awarded the 2012

Sports Illustrated Kids SportsKids

of the Year.

The spirit that Conner and

Cayden show every day, and in

every race, is in perfect keeping

with what we look for in our

annual SportsKid of the Year

search, said SI Kids Managing

Editor and Publisher Bob Der.

They are true examples of the

good that can be accomplished

through sports and we are proud

to honour them.

While the two have never won

a race, Connor and Cayden

have inspired all those that have

crossed their paths and have

shown all families with special

needs children that anyone can do

anything with the support and love

of each other!

When we go looking for inspiration in our lives, many of us begin to think of far-

away places, elite athletes and

humanitarians that have helped

changed society. I am here to

inform you that there is no need

to look towards the podiums of

greatness and on most occasions

we need only to open our eyes

and our hearts the people we

pass going about our daily lives to

be inspired.

This lesson was again reinforced

to me last week when I visited

Caloundra Goodlife Health Club

and met Michael Wright. Michael

explained to me that when he

turned 41 he was your typical

Aussie guy, a glazier by trade who

loved his footy, V8 Supercars and

of course a few beers with the

boys. Michael was however far

from average weight for his height,

in fact Michael was weighing in at

117kgs At that stage I just wasnt

watching what I ate, wasnt

training or playing any sport

Michael stated.

The Michael I was looking at

seemed a far cry from the 25

kilo plus overweight person that

was just described to me, so I

enquired how the transformation

came about I was actually

lucky that my partner at the time

became involved with Goodlife

Health Clubs and introduced

me to their 12 week challenge.

I ended up losing 18kgs in 12

weeks

So what is the 12 week challenge

and why does it produce such

great results? For me getting

to the gym in the first place was

the hardest part. The 12 week

challenge allows you access

to personal trainers, nutritional

seminars and weekend boot

camps. You meet maybe 30 other

individuals that are in the same

situation in life as you are. Having

a training buddy or personal

trainer at the gym keeps your

motivation up to get there in the

first place.

Michael also stated that The 12

week challenge also comes with

incentives for you to reach your

goals. You can actually win money

if you end up a club, state or

national winner of the competition

Michaels health and fitness

journey did not end there; Michael

took part in the Goodlife Health

Clubs AIPT course to become

a personal trainer. Fast forward

to today Michael has now lost

25 kilos and is a fully accredited

personal trainer who works

out of the Goodlife Health Club

Caloundra.

Having done the hard yards

himself I was interested to find

out what training philosophies

Michael passes on to his clients

I tell my clients to enjoy the

journey, get to know others at the

gym, make friends and immerse

yourself in the health and fitness

environment. As a trainer I make

sure I get to know all my clients

on a personal level and I actually

truly care about them. The clients

see that I care and it motivates

them. It is always an uplifting

feeling when you realise someone

actually does care about you.

Recently, I had the pleasure of chatting with Para Olympian Rick Pendleton, who I feel is one

of the most genuine, passionate

and inspirational individuals I have

ever met. Rick was born with one

hand, however, this has never

stopped him achieving anything

in life, in fact, Rick informed me

that When you are born with a

disability you dont see things as

barriers, you just learn to adapt

without too much trouble

Ricks can do attitude was obvious

at an early age as he became a

keen football player and a surf

lifesaving nipper. This love of the

ocean, combined with a little

push in the right direction from his

mother, soon saw Rick take up

swimming My swimming career

started around that transitional

time between primary and high

school, my mum actually entered

me in my first swimming carnival

and I broke the state record. Not

long after that the 2000 Sydney

Olympics hit town and I just went

wow I want to do that.

Rick did more than just make it

to the Olympics, throughout his

career he has smashed world

records and has taken home 5

Para Olympic gold medals. I asked

Rick what is left on his sporting to

do list I am currently in training for

the Worlds in Montreal later this

year. I dont really have any long

term goals I just take every day

as it comes. As long as I still have

the passion and the drive to keep

swimming I will.

Rick has been there and done

that, along the way conquering

more barriers than most, so I

asked what advice he could pass

on to other young kids with a

disability When I hit high school

I became very aware of my

differences. Sport allowed me to

focus on something other than

my differences, all I can say is that

if any sport interests you have

a crack at it as you never know

where that sport may take you.

Rick also believes that to be a

successful athlete you must dream

big I always had big goals, I

wanted gold medals and I wanted

to smash world records. Back

than I would never have mentioned

my goals to anyone but they were

always on my mind

I asked Rick what has been

his most memorable sporting

achievement The Gold Medal

at the Beijing Olympics, I just

missed out on a medal four years

previously at Athens by .07 of a

second, after that I set myself a

target, worked hard for four years

and then achieved that target

Rick who has been the recipient

of the prestigious OAM, Medal of

the Order of Australia, for his 2008

gold medals has only recently

taken on a coaching position at

Matthew Flinders as the head

coach for the Flinders Swimming

Club. This is a great opportunity

for any inspiring swimmers to learn

from a true champion.

I will leave you with Ricks motto,

the one he kept telling himself

between the Athens and Beijing

Olympics; maybe it can help you

stay on the path to your dreams.

Pain only lasts for a minute where

failure can last for a lifetime

Neville Kratzman is an Australian representative cricket player that can be found nearly every

weekend mixing it up out on the

pitch with the best teenagers in our

region, not a bad accomplishment

considering he turns 70 years

young this August.

When questioned how he keeps

competing at such a high level,

Nevilles answer is simple It is all in

your mind, I am a hundred percent

certain it is all about keeping a

positive outlook

Neville has been a stalwart in

regional, state and national teams

for decades now and shows no

signs of slowing up I turn 70 soon

so I am the oldest in the over 60s

Australian team. I have been asked

to captain the over 70s Australian

team, but I am still really competitive

in the over 60s so I think I will stay

in this division and move into the

over 70s with the teammates I have

now.

Neville has had his fair share of

setbacks, In 2007 Neville was

diagnosed with prostate cancer

and although he is still undergoing

treatment Neville has fought his

illness with stellar results and

continues to work on his farm as

well as representing Australia for

cricket. A few years ago Neville

also smashed his knee cap during

a cricket match which saw him

rushed to hospital and undergo

basically a full knee reconstruction.

Neither of the above two setbacks

has slowed this true blue Aussie

battler down I definitely never feel

sorry for myself, I am and always

will be committed to playing cricket

whenever and wherever I can. I

just keep reminding myself of all

the positive things in my life. You

just have to get out there and give

things a go; it is amazing what

you can achieve when you whole

heartily give things a shot.

The social side that cricket offers

is also a very important element

in Nevilles life I have met some

amazing people that I would not

have met if I didnt play cricket;

some of them have become my

best friends.

Neville does play B grade local

cricket which sees him come up

against teenagers It is a good

thing; I am the oldest out there

so I can teach them things about

sportsmanship and how to play

the game, being around younger

people keeps me feeling younger

as well.

Neville has been there and done

that and could teach any athlete

a thing or two about what it takes

to become successful at their

chosen sport. Dream big, its the

ones with the biggest

dreams that will

do the hard

yards

and

do

the work when others wont.

You dont get more true blue than

Neville Kratzman, a local stock

farmer that still works the land, an

Australian cricket representative

and a damn good bloke. If there

was any parting words I could

leave you with that I took out of

my conversation with Neville is that

make sure you dream big in life and

love what you do!!

We are a team of exercise physiologists passionate about inspiring healthy life

choices to create a ripple effect of

positive change in our Sunshine

Coast community. Kaizen is a

Japanese philosophy of continual

improvement. Its all about doing

the small things consistently

getting better with small steps.

Thats the approach we take with

our business, ourselves, and with

our clients.

We are fortunate to work with

some amazing people and be

involved in their life changing

results. From diabetics who no

longer need their medication,

people in pain who can now move

more freely, rock bands, CEOs,

junior athletes and even 91 year

olds wanting to improve their

ten pin bowling score! Whilst we

have so many inspiring stories

we wanted to congratulate a

well-known Sunshine Coaster, Roy

Henzell on his 60th birthday and

share with you how he has turned

his health around.

Ten years ago Roy celebrated his

50th birthday. While the party was

great, the after party wasnt such

a success. On the night of his

50th birthday Roy was rushed to

hospital with a serious heart attack.

In fact he almost didnt make it into

his 50s. Years of high work stress,

a hip replacement, a family history

of heart disease, and an inactive

lifestyle almost cut his life short.

Roy made a decision that he

wanted to be alive for his family

and see his kids grow up. He

was sick of being tired and feeling

uncomfortable with his shape and

fitness.

Roy started off slowly (the Kaizen

approach) and we developed a

programme to build up his health

momentum along the way. He

now works out three times a week

at Kaizen Exercise Physiologists

doing a variety of exercises

to maintain his hips, keep his

cardiovascular system in top

shape, and pumping iron. In Roys

60s youre more likely to find him

out on the golf course, walking his

dog, or cycling on his racing bike

rather than eating fast food, sitting

in an office all week, or in bars.

In fact Roy put himself on a self-

imposed 3 month alcohol ban this

year leading up to his 60th. He is

fitter, trimmer, moves better, eats

better, has another daughter, and

most importantly is not in hospital

having a heart attack like he did on

his 50th Birthday.

Not only has his own health

improved but were proud that

hes helped us with our mission to

create a ripple of positive health by

bringing his family along to Kaizen.

While Roys chronological age

may have increased 10 years, his

biological age has reversed - yours

can too. Contact Kaizen on:

What Training do you do: Weekly golf lessons; 1 hours golf

practice every day; 30 min fitness

training weekly by Dave Liow at

strength and stretching session

at Matthew Flinders Gym.

What or who inspires you: Tiger

Woods is an inspirational golfer

because he refuses to lose; and

Rory McIlroy because he achieved

so much at a young age.

Golf, along with many sports,

requires rapid, rotational

acceleration (torque) of one

or more limbs of the body. To

produce the required force to drive

a ball onto the green, the bodys

joints must work in sequential,

segmental coordination. Due to the

repetitive nature of golf, overuse

injuries, particularly the knees,

lower back, shoulders and elbows

are common. The recent shift in

the field of Strength & Conditioning

has been to train the body as

one, functional unit; thereby,

training movement patterns (motor

control) and the movement of a

joint (functional movement) as a

way of not only decreasing the

risk for injury, but also enhancing

performance. Functional

movement training systems (FMS)

aim to not only rehabilitate such

injuries but, when implemented

correctly, can reduce the risk of

such injuries occurring. FMS

focuses on training the movement

of the body and its joints, rather

than an individual muscles size

or strength. Therefore, functional

movement capability should

precede performance-based

capability.

To create a functional training

program, one must break down

the movements required by the

sport. Once an understanding

of what is required has been

established, exercises can be

developed and manipulated to

become more sport specific. As

golf requires the production of such

high amounts of torque through

multiple joints, particularly the core,

the focus for training leans toward

the mobility, stability, flexibility and

strength of the core.

One such functional training

exercise that focuses on the core

is the T Spine Mobility Series

www.functionalmovement.com.

This exercise keeps the hips

stable while generating movement

fuNCTIONal fITNESS


through the spine, while also

dynamically activating the muscles

of the core, scapular stabilizers

and rotator cuff. If there are any

issues with flexibility in the core or

shoulder, this exercise is great for

identification, improvement and

management of that inflexibility.

By utilising FMS with elite junior

golfer Jack Trent a sound functional

movement base has been

established ensuring performance

measures are evaluating only

performance and not fundamental

movement pattern issues.

Therefore, fundamental movement

capability should precede

complex movement activity or skill

training. These movements form

a neuromuscular foundation for

sporting performance and reduce

compensatory substitution as

a result of limited fundamental

movement.

By Matthew Bousson, Strength

and Conditioning Coach, Matthew

Flinders Anglican College, (which

boasts strength and conditioning

coaches as well as Sports

Scientists on staff).

It is undeniable that all Australians have fallen in love with Manu Fieldel. I cant remember any other celebrity chef in our nations history that has

enjoyed such widespread acclaim. Recently,

I was lucky enough to catch up with Manu

and I endeavoured to try and find out what

is it about this French born Chef that has

captured the hearts of all Australians.

You first entered into an apprenticeship at

the age of fifteen, many years on you are at

the top of your game and have become globally

renowned for your talents. What keeps you

inspired and keeps the love of cooking

burning so brightly?

It is my life, and I feel it is

something I was born

to do so I dont get

bored with it. I think it

is the same with any

career if you keep

on being creative

and discovering

new products

and techniques

it keeps it

interesting.

Did you ever think, back when

you first became involved with

My Kitchen Rules, that it would

become the most watched reality

TV show in the country?

I never knew but I hoped!!

You showed you are just as brilliant

on the dance floor as you are in

the kitchen when you took out

Dancing with the Stars in 2011.

What was your most memorable

moment from the show?

Winning! It was a great experience

being involved in the show and I

have to say I enjoyed every minute,

including dancing for hours EVERY

day! Obviously though winning

and getting to do my show dance

was a highlight and the most

memorable moment for me.

Youre internationally famous, yet

you carry yourself like the archetypal

bloke next door, how do you remain

so grounded and humble?

I remember where I came from

and where I started. I dont take

life for granted and realise Im very

lucky right now, you never know

how long things will last and it

could all end tomorrow.

You have had many stellar

achievements since moving

to Australia, Is there any one

achievement that holds a special

place in your heart?

To be honest my greatest

achievement in my heart is my son

and bringing him up the way he is

On My Kitchen Rules when you

utter that one word, Bonjour, you

cause an instant hot flash with

the ladies right across Australia.

Put simply you have become a

massive Australian sex symbol,

how does this tag sit with you?

It is a strange phenomenon, I

never quite get used to it although

I would be lying if I said I didnt

enjoy it from time to time!!!

In this edition of MOTION

Magazine there is a feature article

on Matt Golinski and his passion

to return to the kitchen. Can

you explain your involvement in

the charity foundation Plates for

Mates?

When I heard the tragic news

about Matt and his family I was

straight on the phone to George,

Gary and the others and we all

were wondering what we could

do. From us all putting our heads

together Plates for Mates was

born, the 1st fund raiser last year

was a huge success and I believe is

going to help Matt set up a facility

to help others in similar situations.

Are there any upcoming events or

fundraisers for Plates for Mates that

my readers should be aware of?

Well we have expanded a

little and have Cruise for Mates

coming up; its a great opportunity

for people to get up close to

us chefs. There are 2 different

cruises around Europe - Im very

excited about it. If people want to

know more, donate or jump on

board a cruise they need to go to

Your about to walk in the

footsteps of heroes and tackle

the treacherous Kokoda Train.

This trek, 96km in total, is only

passable on foot and will take you

across rugged, isolated terrain,

climbing to 2,190 metres above

sea level. What is the motivation

behind engaging in this adventure?

Helping others. I wanted to set

myself a challenge and what better

way than to involve a charity and

raise awareness and money for a

great cause at the same time.

Depending on fitness, the Kokoda

Train normally takes between 4

and 12 days to complete. What

training have you been doing to

prepare your body for this journey

and do you have a target amount

of days that you want to complete

the trek in?

I have been training intensely

with my personal trainer (Anthony

Thompson) who is joining me on

the trek for about 3 months. As

Kokoda is more about endurance

than strength or general fitness

we have been doing lots of hill

walking, stair training and hikes.

We are going with an organisation

so will be planning to do the walk

in 9 days.

Has your diet changed whilst you

are in training? If so what stable

nutritional meal do you enjoy on a
