The world is having a very challenging time dealing with this virus. I feel so lucky and blessed to be in NZ where our struggles are quite minor in comparison to other countries. We all have our own struggles, some are seen, some we hold within us. I continue to train even though several events
18 years on and we still remember the fallen 343 firefighters from that day. Thanks to numerous volunteers and Fired Up Events for organising this Sky Tower event.
Once a year FireUp Events helps corporate runners run the gauntlet up the Skytower. This year was no different to others, raising a bunch of funds and spreading a bunch of smiles (“Always smiles at the start line” Tony Scott). A big thanks to Scotty (FiredUp Events) and SkyCity for allowing the event to take
Every year these firefighters never cease to amaze me. Within a few months, these brave men and women, paid and volunteers, do way more than expected and channel their efforts to raise funds for LBC. $1,318,000 raised for LFC in 2019 by Firefighters doing their thing.

Wow, what an event! This Tough Mudder thing is out of the park! It’s just massive and everything is so much bigger, better and harder than anything I’ve seen before. So I’ve run a few ultra marathons in my time, but this was epic running through rivers, barbed wire, electric fences, over walls… I mean,
Once a year the Firefighters get together and remember their fallen comrades. Each year the service honours and remembers NYC 911 and the NZ service crew fallen in the line of duty. It’s a very moving time and the event is, although solum, it is beautiful. Everyone there respects the event and the memory.
Helping a friend of mine who works at Health Point, I was asked to talk with a group that meet in Highland Park, community house Pakuranga. This lovely group of eclectic people, meet once a week and discuss options for better living through speakers and group participation. A big thank you to Sheerti and the
