So is the #lchf eating actually working? To be honest, I haven’t been as consistent with it as I need to be... however, the food is tasty and simple to prepare after a day at work (the meal pictured is beef mince, bacon, tomatoes and cheese cooked in a pan and spooned over crunchy cos lettuce and mayo. Also, I am no longer getting hunger pangs, even if I skip a meal. For example, this morning I woke about 4:30, rode about 15kms up and down the hills of Kings Park - on an empty stomach. Afterwards I had a black coffee, and then nothing but a little water until about 2:30pm. I’m also improving my swimming and riding, and overall general fitness. So, you be the judge 😊 #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #lowcarb #realfood #triathlon #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman
Keep up the good work xx
2 loops of Kings Park to get the heart started, and simultaneously make the quads scream 😜 #ptcaccountability @perthtriclub #kingspark #perth #perthisok #NMMFG #MakeLifeAmazing #lifestylereboot
a beautiful place to do it too 😍
While my son did 10km of cycling with his cub scouts pack, I squeezed in 4km of walking along the South Perth foreshore, with a coffee in between. Conditions were perfect. So much different from yesterday’s blast furnace!

We saw you wandering past the fourby show.
Beautiful photo of a beautiful place xx
Took this photo before the @perthtriclub bike training on Tuesday. Will have to try again - it’s just a little off-centre 😳
The leaning Tower of Kings Park
Just quietly, I impressed myself a little today. Conditions were great and things came together to produce time and distance PBs for continuous front crawl. The whole 40 minutes / roughly a km - no breaks, no breaststroke, no doggy paddle. All down to coaching and #ptcaccountability from @perthtriclub #NMMFG #MakeLifeAmazing #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman #perth #citybeach #perthisok
Also know as freestyle 😜
It’s meant to be #LCHF pancakes. It’s actually expensive crumbs. In the wise words of my 10 year old “well that’s another recipe you can cross off the list” 😜
I’ve learned something today... if the recipe says 1 cup almond flour, but you didn’t want to spend that much on flour and used coconut instead... use about a quarter of a cup as coconut flour will suck up the liquid a lot more than almond....
My favourite LCHF “dessert” at the moment is just whipped cream mixed with either frozen blackberries or raspberries... pretty basic but makes me feel like I’m getting a treat 😝
Looks most unusual love more like scrambled eggs 😢 love what Kian said bless him ❤️
Strava’s graph of my fitness over the last 12 months. Fair to say there was a downward slide, but definitely heading in the right direction again 😊😊 #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman
That's good news Xx much better than mine lol xx
Looks pretty similar!
What program or app is this?
20km ride done ✅ Coffee has arrived ✅ Sun is out ✅ Not a bad way to start the day. #NMMFG #MakeLifeAmazing #ptcaccountability #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman #perth #swanriver #perthisok
Kings Park rewarded an early start with another fabulous sunrise - just the 10km on the bike today, riding the KP hills with the latest @perthtriclub beginners group. Surprisingly scored a couple of segment PBs, so I must be doing something right? #NMMFG #MakeLifeAmazing #ptcaccountability #trilife #triathlon #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman
No training today, just a relatively leisurely start to the day, and my first attempt at a low carb pancake recipe from @diet_doctor Wasn’t too bad, looks fantastic, but more like mini omelettes than pancakes. Will give one of the other recipes a crack next time. #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #lowcarb #lchf
First time running Canning River parkrun for a while, and so fantastic to see @jez_savage on his return to CRp as Event Director (and today’s Run Director)
#nmmfg #makelifeamazing #parkrun #loveparkrun #welcomebackjez
And that’s a full set of pre-work training for the week. 6am open water swim in the murky rolling waters, fighting the swell and the seaweed lol. 750m in just under 40 minutes and I’m happy with that. #ptcaccountability @perthtriclub #citybeach #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman @ City Beach, Western Australia
Well done love xx
Struggled to get going this morning but forced myself out of bed and headed into Perth to meet the crew at 5:30. Wasn’t up for a full river loop so did my own thing - 25km done and reasonably happy with it as a baseline, and continuing this week of getting back into the training groove. #ptcaccountability #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman
Well done love xx keep up the good work xxx
Awesome work buddy
You did better than me. I’ve snoozed my 5am run two days in a row now 😫. There’s always tomorrow
Another day, another early wake-up and more #ptcaccountability with the @perthtriclub
Main aim currently is get back in the habit of regular club training, and build up fitness. Knocked out 1.6km in about an hour this morning, with the assistance of fins and snorkel. #NMMFG #MakeLifeAmazing #trilife #swimbikerun #roadtobusso2020 #accidentalironman
Up at adventure o’clock for a @perthtriclub #ptcaccountability ride around King’s Park. Rewarded with this view and, an hour or so later, coffee!! #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #kingspark #perth #perthisokay
So this happened yesterday - a few of the @perthtriclub peeps got together to complete the “Sprint into Spring” challenge from Mum Runner - because training is always better with friends, coffee and breakfast 😊 #nmmfg #ptcaccountability #makelifeamazing #trilife #bikerunswim #accidentalironman #timetotri
Looking for a new challenge? My tri club are running another novice course - why not give it a “tri”? You’ll amaze yourself at what you can achieve 😊 #trisomethingnew #ptc #nomoremrfatguy #makelifeamazing #timetotri @perthtriclub
My last multi sport activity was Geraldton Triathlon with @geraldton_triclub 😜Only 4 or 5 months later, a 35 minute ride and 10 minute run “brick” happened to occur back in Geraldton! That’s #SpringIntoSpring #week1 done - thanks for the motivation and challenge @mum_runners #nmmfg #makelifeamazing #lifestylereboot #trilife #swimbikerun #noswimtoday #brick #triathlete #theaccidentalironman
103 people crossed the finish line of Marina parkrun event number 1. Great weather, great location, successful launch and fantastic to see so many Perth parkrunners had made the trip up! #loveparkrun #parkrun #ambassadorlife @parkrunau
I posted this on my Facebook profile earlier and a friend of mine (@jeffhansen9748) left THE BEST comment:
If that was a school report card, it would read "Gary has been a promising student, but has let his grades slip of late. He has shown in the past what great things he can achieve when he puts his mind to it. He could do so much better if he applied himself to his studies"
Great motivator. You know you can do it 🙂
Yep. Apply yourself 😊
Get it done boss man! 💪🏻
Due to a trip to Geraldton for the launch of Marina parkrun, I’m not at work today, so I got to the pool a little later than last time. I think it was colder lol. Good session done though, now time for a nap before heading 470km north 😜#nmmfg #SprintIntoSpring #makelifeamazing #ptcaccountability #parkrun #loveparkrun @perthtriclub @mum_runners @parkrunau @ Aqua Jetty Warnbro
Have a good trip & time xxx
Well that was a) cold and b) hard work - first run in a while. #sprintintospring #trilife #ptcaccountability #nmmfg #makelifeamazing @mum_runners @perthtriclub ps I used the filter labelled “normal” however it doesn’t appear to have worked...

Friggin FREEZING is what comes to mind....were our legs even there this morning 🤔 I know I couldn't feel mine 😫
Scary stuff 😨
I forgot to mention.. the Sprint into Spring bling is a little bit different. Who can resist spinning bling??!!
That's awesome 👍
Psst... there’s still time to sign up for the virtual triathlon 😜
Registration period extended another day 😊😊
