Much to my surprise, not too much later my email pinged with an offer from Sir Peter Snell to host me. Supplied Sir Peter Snell, a legend and a gentleman, with young Kiwi triathlete Michael Poole in 2012. The first was on the Friday night when Sir Peter accompanied me to the pre-race meeting for the professional athletes. When you suddenly realise Sir Peter Snell is riding a mountain bike next to you in support you are no longer tired. Sir Peter deserves to be a wonderful New Zealand legend and was truly a good man.
