A great-great-great-grandson of classical music composer Antonin Dvorak, Craig Stevens got his first drum kit from his dad at age six. He got a major glimpse of the music business in the early 90's tour managing former Sire/Warner Recording Artists, The Greenberry Woods, and ... pulled behind-the-scenes stints with The Proclaimers, Squeeze, and The Rolling Stones on their "Bridges To Babylon Tour."

Stevens had unexpected company in Auckland’s Jeremy Kuggeleijn during the opening 14km kayak from Coromandel to Waitete Bay. Kuggeleijn got the drop on the race favourite too, opening up 7secs as they swapped kayaks for mountain bikes for a 40km ride to Port Jackson. Stevens... is from a cycling background – his brother Gavin is a former Commonwealth Games medallist – and wasted no time in opening up a commanding lead while Kuggeleijn eventually faded out of the placings.

In March 2007, Stevens won his first World Championship medal after finishing 3rd in the 800m freestyle final with a personal best time of 7:48.67. At the same meet, he ... broke the 15-minute barrier in the 1500m freestyle for the first time, finishing 6th in the final with a time of 14:59.11.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Stevens worked mostly in television but tackled stage roles from time to time as did his wife, Alexis Smith, who worked frequently on Broadway throughout much of the 1970s. Stevens retired from acting in the late 1980s and passed away from cancer in May 2000 at the age of 81. Smith preceded him in death in 1993 at age 72.

After high school, Stevens worked in construction and then worked for Brody Printing Co. in Bridgeport “in every department.” He would practice casting and the back-and-forth motion associated with fly-fishing during his lunch hour. He had no fluid motion; it was mostly “hack and slash.”

Even some broken spokes during one of the mountain bike legs and big seas on the penultimate leg – a 17km kayak in the Pacific Ocean between Waikawau Bay and Kennedy Bay – failed to hinder Stevens impressive solo effort. Although the near-ideal weather conditions helped as both Stevens and second placed Carl Bevan (Akld) broke the previous record.
