I have a rule on myself to stay young. Every time I see a swing rope into water I must do a back flip, and every time I see a 1m diving board, I must do a gainer (run forward, back flip).

I'm 41 now, I'm really curious how old I'll be when I can't do them anymore.

We always say “a backie a day keeps the doctor away”.

It’s entirely incorrect but it keeps life fun!
