I have just completed a follow up story to the picture that Gianni Epifani sent me from the 1991 Island Games in Aland. Chris Quine won an individual Island Games medal every year between 1985 and 1999. Thanks to Chris for his help in compiling this piece. I thought that his fantastic record is worth recording too:

Earlier in the evening I interviewed the next featured walker for the parishwalk.com but I'll leave it until the weekend to write up.
I had a meeting at 7.30 this morning and I'm not used to starting so early these days so after a quick blog on my PW blog, I am quitting.
Oh, the picture above was from the same set as I used on the main website. Chris is pictured with teammate Peter Kaneen after the 5000 metres - an event where Chris won 4 silver medals in the Island Games.
