A computer company consultant and co-owner in a catering business with his wife, Duhme has made time for you to fit training around a busy life along with a strict diet.

The 40-year-old Duhme, because he prepares for his first triathlon in the Olympic distance on the first weekend of November, is far fitter and healthier than 2 day diet strong when this particular journey began.

And after competing with what he called several "baby tris (triathlons)" swimming, cycling and running at shorter distances than the 1,500-meter swim, 40-kilometer cycle and 10-kilometer run he's getting excited about competing in one of Australia's most popular multi-sport events and also over exactly the same distance that elite Olympians do.

Mark Vann, Duhme's personal trainer, predicts his student will do well. "He is dedicated, highly-motivated and highly-driven," says Vann.

Duhme increased his training a year ago as he and Karina, originally from Blackmore, England, got the best possible news: after extensive testing, it was determined he wasn't only an eligible donor, but just about ideal.

"It's a million-to-one shot, and Karina i never super slim thought I'd be considered a right diamond necklace," Duhme said. "I went through the preliminary tests, we experienced the cross-matching, only then do we had to wait a month. We got the e-mail on a Monday morning in November of last year also it turned out I had been even a better match than her sister was.
