50 ‘ticked’ Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
Big, beautiful rolling waves coming in to Manly this morning with lots of surfers enjoying them too.
Of particular note this morning though was the fact that there was something warm and round in the sky… I think someone said it was the sun !
A few swimmers went out from the beach but it was certainly a case of two strokes forward and three strokes back as they approached the point.
Most of us ‘sensible’ swimmers went to and from half way beach again with many people enjoying a second lap.
The good news is there are now only 5 full weeks and two bonus days of a sixth week of winter left for 2011 🙂 As of today 48 people have qualified for their winter badge so far, 153 people are still on target and 119 people need to swim soon !! If you are one of those people who need to swim soon your name will be highlighted orange on our awesome winter badge tracking software, check out how you’re going by clicking on the badge icon to the left of this blog 🙂
Four B&Bers, namely Chris Kiely, Nick TB Dowson, Robin Turner and myself tried our hand at unicycling yesterday, as we thought it was about time Anna Alvsdotter and Richard Lees had some company. So if you find any pink splodges on the pavements around Manly please be gentle as it could be one of your fellow swimmers outta water.
