All-time top 10 blog posts

As a dynamic, young multimedia go-getter, there is obviously nothing sadder or more pathetic to me than witnessing the slow decline of a chisseled old hack, as they stop taking pride in their work and, instead, just start rehashing stuff they've done before, churning out cheap and easy content rather than investing in fresh new editorial ideas.

So, ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, I present for your consideration this magnetic, vigorous, fresh and in no way whatsoever cynical rundown of the ten most read posts that have appeared on this here blog over the past couple of years.

Hopefully you'll find them interesting and, if nothing else, it's an interesting lesson in what folks want to read...

1. Wadi Bih Run race report

2. Ironman Wales race report part 1

3. Have you read my latest blag post?

4. Ironman Austria race report part 3

5. 25 signs that you're a Dubai triathlete

6. Ironman Austria race report - the day before the race

7. The things I won't miss about doing tri in Dubai

8. Typical Dubai triathlete conversations

9. Tri Yas - race report

10. The things I will miss about tri in Dubai

The lessons to be learnt are fairly clear. If you want a successful triathlon blog, fill it with race reports coz people love that stuff.

Back with another,, somewhat more original (but only a little somewhat) post soon enough. Cheers.
