male, 39 years old, Macclesfield I'm one of the founders of Konkura. My name comes from the fact I used to be the oldest rower in my crew, so I got called Dinosaur. I look forward to competing with you all on Konkura!

  • Just completed first (and last!) big run ahead of next week's Manchester Marathon. Despite torrential rain, a hold up due to a horse throwing it's rider, just 3 weeks of training and being 15 stone and nearly 38, managed 18miles in 2hrs 36 - so in theory on for about 3:45, maybe a little faster allowing for adrenalin.
