ONE STEP AHEAD: Intuitive eating. WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: The standing desk. HOT PROPERTY INTERVIEW – KYLE BUCKINGHAM: South African Kyle Buckingham was a surfer. He surfed every day until at age 24 he started running for fun on a treadmill. In 2005, a year later, he did his first Ironman. In 2013 Kyle went to Kona and raced to an age group record time of 8:37 and in 2014 took his first win at Lake Placid. A week ago he took out his second Ironman victory winning Ironman Vineman in a time of 8:27:58! An incredible athlete who’s now got his eye on Kona. 5 MINUTE FOCUS: Bevan talks to Shannon Rea, Regional Sales Representative for GARMIN Australasia about the new Garmin Forerunner 735XT.
