With several members of my family in either the 'I have diabetes' or the 'high risk' camp, as well as a high-profile advertising campaign (it was National Diabetes Week here recently); a quick look at Diabetes was definitely on the cards. In particular, a few dietary changes that can make a massive difference.

Aviation Firefighter David Thomson is about to embark on a superb challenge - rowing 1,000,000 metres in 10 days on a Concept2. As anyone who's put in a bit of time on the C2 will attest, this is a long, long way.
The challenge is designed to raise money for the Adelaide Woman's and Children's Hospital Burns Unit; which looks after burns victims and others affected by fire. A very good cause indeed.

Tom Hafey is an amazing man. In the 1950s he played Aussie Rules Football for Richmond; for much of the next three decades he coached Richmond, Geelong, Collingwood and Sydney. To say he kept fit during this time is an understatement.
Now in his mid-seventies, Hafey still follows a serious workout plan. To give you an idea, here's a snippet from his daily routine :
- 10 minutes stretching
- 200 push-ups
- Beach swim (regardless of water temperature)
- 700 sit-ups
- Runs - 7 to 8 kilometres (4 - 5 miles)
In addition to that, he heads to the gym 3 or 4 days per week for the throwing around of the iron. Modest weights, but always taken to failure.
Inspired? Head over to Craig Harper's site for a great audio interview [.mp3, 14mb] with Hafey. Incredible.
