Looking out the door from 4.2km up, your body screams NOOOOOOOOO!!! …but it's too late to back out. The only way down is vertically, at 200km/h.(Actual jump at 3m05s) Google+: View post on Google+ Post imported by Google+Blog. Created By Daniel Treadwell.

The Snow Penguin

As a new day breaks over Tokyo, the Snow Penguin is reminded of the dark years he spent living in a snow cave in the crater of Mt. Fuji.  Oh how life has changed. Google+: View post on Google+ Post imported by Google+Blog. Created By Daniel Treadwell.

Countdown to the jump

Not long now until we take to the blue skies over Guam in a little diddy plane, climb to 14,000ft, then jump. Excited! Yesterday we did a little altitude training whilst attached to a boat. Great fun! Google+: View post on Google+ Post imported by Google+Blog. Created By Daniel Treadwell.

The 6km Guam Banana that Wanted to be a Bay

It's late here in Guam, and I've just got back in from a run. One thing I've found – there are not as many roads on Guam as in central Tokyo. So, when it comes to the Art of Running, there's not much to work with. Having said that, we went to local market this […]

Hello from the Mariana archipelago!

Had a little drama getting to Guam today… I don't know what it is about me and airports, but I also seem to manage to create some sort of drama.  Two years ago, when flying from London to Barcelona, I managed to leave my wallet on the airport shuttle bus. This led to a series […]

Heading South

The last two years have been crazy busy, so much so that @twinkletame and I haven't had a proper holiday since New Year 2011.  When Twinkle's resignation from her previous job coincided with the unexpected cancellation of a big project I was working on, we found ourselves with a bit of time, so decided to […]

An Art of Running project for Yomiuri TV

There's a short trailer on the site which gives […]

Today's weather in Tokyo was just fantastic

So many sudden torrential downpours, dramatic cloud formations, sunlight and wind. Got a great view from my home office, able to keep the doors open even when it rains thanks to the rain-proof balcony design. That's one reason I'm so happy to be working from home again – I feel much more connected with the […]

Google Goggles: makes me feel I am living in the future

I’ve lost count of the number of times this year I’ve been blown away by some new form of technology. There’s been the iPhone, the iPad, the Love+ app for iPad & iPhone. It happened again tonight: I’m watching a DVD with a friend. It’s set in England. There’s a scene filmed in the grounds […]
