The Stones beat the Tough Mudder!

Thanks to Gopika’s awesome photography, here’s some photos from the Tough Mudder event Sarah and I just completed!! about 20km of muddy madness! Tested us to our limits. We had a team of 6 and it was definitely a team effort to get through.

I can tell you… I have one amazing tough wife! Sarah was awesome and did everything, even got electrocuted! Love her to bits!

Hiking backcountry with the lads! Cheeseman & Olympus!

Here’s some pics from a hike I did with Gavin and Si Sharp. We did 3x 2000m+ peaks in a few days and a few nights camping in an alpine tent by a tarn. I have to say this pushed me quite a bit. I now have a new appreciated of what ‘mountain fit’ means!!

Great company and a good time in perfect weather. We climbed Mt Cheeseman, Mt Olympus and Mt Cockayne. Nice meal at Arthurs Pass to finish it all off on a high note!
