25.01.2022 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours. This. This was difficult. Set aside that I weigh over 100kg or anything like that. This was tough. I dont run a ton. My first runs were alright. But when things went downhill, they went quick. So, why did I do this? Well, here we go. Let's talk about the most important part first. The last 4 miles.... I believe lots of people in the position I was in, would have packed it up. Maybe even well before the last run. But that last run was a stitch up. Started with a walk because I was already feeling like vomiting. Decided to pick up the pace to my slow shuffle..... bad idea. I'm not even 1km in yet and I'm blowing up. Back to walking. My feet are screwed. Cramps everywhere. And every run since halfway has brought vomit, worse by the run. But I never had a doubt about finishing this 4 miles. It's to prove a point. TO ME. That I am not a quitter. Both matter the circumstances, you perform if you can perform. I was able to hobble so I had no excuse. I did it. I crossed the finish line. No one else could do those runs for me. No one could perform, hydrate, recover, and all the nitty gritty stuff for me. Only me. That run epitomises why I did this. I'd seen @davidgoggins talk about this. I knew @jimmymcconachy and @yeahdamav had both done it. I wanted to. I wanted a challenge. I wanted to test myself. For me. It's a great story. People can draw from this but at the end of the day, any hard thing comes down to you and you. Are you willing to do what it takes? Are you willing to accept adversity and smile in its face? I hope that you find the answers to those questions for you are yes. Because no one can make you do it. Ain't no God given talent for that. Just a willingness to stay the course. And that's why I did it. I wanted to say those things to myself. Did I end up walking? Yep. My times drifted slower and slower. But I kept showing up. I didn't self sabotage and sell myself stories that don't add up. I worked. Me and my shuffle on every run. I appreciated all the support from everyone. Facebook and Instagram. In person. All the cool support is very welcomed. Thank you!

25.01.2022 The last bootcamp. We are so close we can freaking taste it. People are booked in for next week at @crossfitcq and everything! Goodness me, I'm excited for this next step on the journey. I'm excited that I have not only myself to offer but an entire team of insane professionals of the industry to guide my crew and i get ot start guiding others as well! What a damn blessing. #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

25.01.2022 Let me tell you about how impressed I was this morning. VERY. It's cold. I get it. It's warm in bed and hard to get up. @1980gorgeouskaren basically doesn't stop showing up. And today she ran her ass off like never before. I put a challenge out. Last week, I challenge @emmalea1029 in a similar way. Both ladies stepped up to the challenge for sure. So damn impressive for them to work so hard and see it pay off. #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

24.01.2022 What a day. Tuesday and we are already killing it. Marching our way to open gym doors soon! Cannot wait! My crew are always willing to work hard!!! #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

23.01.2022 Monday Morning! Well, we dont have many of these outside sessions left! The gym doors are about to open!! My morning crew are still dedicated to the cause!! #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

22.01.2022 Its more than fitness. A bunch of like minded individuals getting together to relax after a long day of fun competition. Plenty of highlights and unreal show stealing moments for this crew. How 100kg touch and go snatch for 5 can be a side show to a newly crowned 100kg PR? The community got a show today @the_cq_classic that for sure. Day 2! Here we come!

22.01.2022 Get around some cool workouts! Getting us right back in to the gym!

21.01.2022 I'm an all in type of guy. Never half committed. I might not be the best at anything. I might not be talented. I might have to work harder. But I give every last drop of what I've got. It was damn cool to give this way more talented, and hard working to boot, kid a partner in @crossfit_tannumsands beachside mixer this year. @lisa_frost_photography took some insane pictures, I happen to be in one of them. @r.martin00 is so young, it's hard to fathom his potential. I didn't offer much to him but we threw down! #2020vision #hwpo

21.01.2022 Gang gang. What a day with a bunch of great people. We went out and enjoyed some fast fitness with friends on a weekend for the first time out in this wild COVID world. @tfb_crossfitunitedbundaberg held a super cool event with some damn fun workouts. A great test of fitness and all in one day! Couldn't be more thankful to them, @gorilla_health and the other food places, and all the staff and volunteers. What a show! @awesomegrasshopper was a ball to partner up with. I think w...e both had a blast and have a lot to take away for the better! But this @crossfitcq crew. Wow. I think our actions speak volumes. We competed with dignity and respect. We held our values true through and through. And damn did we have a great time together. What a weekend to represent our selves and our community well! #weare #hwpo #2020vision

19.01.2022 The crew at Asn Rockhampton have a sweet giveaway going on! Give yourself a chance to win some cool stuff!

18.01.2022 We damn near filled up this morning! A couple of new faces to the crew and one returning smile! @1980gorgeouskaren had a good laugh with Andrew this morning on his return and they all enjoyed a massive day! The return of my two big guys this morning! Great work team! #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

18.01.2022 A fun and informative weekend with @oliverwilson @lilcosgrove and @danielmellor.online to guide a fleet of us along the way. The @crossfittraining really put together quite a package with these three, even with the current global circumstances. A fantastic venue and crew for my last two days. Let's hope I didn't mess this up and am coaching my @crossfitcq family in just a short amount of time! #weare #hwpo #crossfittraining

14.01.2022 What story will they write about you when everything is said and done? What superlatives will they mention? My hope is that people remember my failures and successes equally.... My hope is that people see the passion in my tear filled eyes whenever I step up and sink my teeth in to something. My hope is that everyone knows that I'm willing to risk it all to be better. My hope is that I'm remembered as a man that was a teacher but unafraid to be someone who learns and can be wrong. I'm not good enough.. but I will be. I'm not smart enough... but I will be. I'm not a lot of things... but what I am is more than enough to get me across the finish line. I will be whatever I desire because I'm not afraid. And I will continue teaching these kids for as long as they let me to live without fear. To live with a full heart. Our first term of CrossFit Kids came to a close this week. Myself and the team @crossfitcq were blown away by the metamorphosis that happened in front of our eyes. And let me tell you, I had some good moments to learn this term. And I'll have even more in the future. These kids will reap those rewards. Myself and @coach.scruffdogg are ready to reload and do it all again in a couple of weeks. We couldn't have done it without @harry_clift06 and @amandamcconachy along the way, so I'm very thankful for them. And we will all be ready for that next step. Passionate. That's the superlative I hope I earn. Im ready to work for it. But will you earn yours? #weare #hwpo #trusttheprocess

08.01.2022 The change is almost here. 2 more outdoor sessions and then it's on! My small and motivated crew from the morning! @1980gorgeouskaren is the flag bearer for certain! Ain't no cold stopping her! And @hilch84 seems to be training with me and then doing the workout with @noah_hilcher04 every day too! What a machine, ey @kellymaree63 ?? #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo

06.01.2022 A weekend away with @crossfitcq family. We had podium finishes and PRs and everything else this weekend. These people get it. They are my people. I had a partner who's unbelievable and I held him back but boy is it fun to throw down with that kid. @r.martin00 gives it a damn crack and reminds me of how far I have to go.... and hes only 15... jeez... We didn't quit. Competition atmosphere can't be replaced so hopefully I added something for him (besides being a heavy weight to... carry). @crossfit_tannumsands crew threw a phenomenal event and I'd argue a very complete test. It's amazing what an event they put on in these trying times. I'm thankful for the opportunity this weekend. I'm thankful for the surroundings that I had. And I'm thankful for the weekend to be over because my damn legs dont want to work. So dont ask me to do a damn thing tomorrow. #weare #hwpo @ CrossFit Tannum Sands

06.01.2022 @tezza.n had the right idea. Dig in to that breakfast! What a fantastic morning for myself and the team! The next page in the journey is here! Some of us got around and celebrated! Thank you for everything team! #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo @ The Green Eat

04.01.2022 A cool weekend of fitness in house. I had the chance to set up the arena and keep the actual fit people knowing when and where to go, while also failing pretty hard at the same workouts. The performances this weekend were top notch by our fellas. @coach.scruffdogg lead from the front as mentor, coach, friend, and competitor. He wore his many hats this weekend and represented himself, his athletes, and @crossfitcq well. @b_rad.s.1994 and @hugginscorey had their first real dig... at that next level. I believe firmly they both walk away with a clear picture of their future and of things to build upon. @jimmymcconachy comes in as the staple. Mr Consistent. Been at it for a while and came I'm with nothing to lose. It boded well for him on the leaderboard and for confidence going in to Age Group Qualifiers. And then the home town hero. The guy I shadowed basically all weekend. @jakestanden_ was everything he needed to be this weekend. The fruits of his labor will show on the scoreboard in a few hours but the real show of his peak is a few weeks down the road @torianpro what an exciting thing to see. These tests were fun and well developed. I really only think the wall ball row is basic, the others are so dynamic! I think they hit a home run. Was proud to be around all weekend. Thanks to the ladies that helped with the show @skh____ @sarahjanemauger @amandamcconachy for all helping keep it running so smoothly. How good is my lifting face? @ Crossfit CQ

03.01.2022 The morning crew working strong! Cold wont stop us! The return of @hilch84 !!!! She came and nailed it then did a session with @noah_hilcher04 later in the day! How dang good! I know she has been working hard at home. It felt good to have the old crew back! #2020vision #seethegainz #weare #hwpo
