Friday 6 April 2018 What are the Slebs doing

06/04/20187

I was reading a review of Sean Penn “Sleb” author – his book is apparently very awful – and thought I know where the real slebs are in the morning. See:

 

Glorious sky

At one point there was a worry that there were not enough caps for newbies and so Sarah was at risk after having finished her early swim:

 

But it got sorted

I got a bit of body surfing and body surfers. The waves were moving fast for it today



This guy was all fired up by the Commonwealth Games and did butterfly. WOW

What I have been reading

The Woman in the Window by AJ Finn.  A thriller with twists and turns in the plot.

 

And a word from management about the next B&B dinner

Next months dinner on Tuesday 10th April features Jodie Petersen, Studio Owner Bikram Yoga Brookvale on The Surprising Ways that Bikram Yoga can help Swimmers

Jodie’s absolute passion in life is Bikram Yoga.  An Australian pioneer in her field, Jodie qualified as a Bikram teacher 21 years ago becoming the world’s first Australian Bikram Yoga teacher. She opened her yoga studio initially in Harbord in 1998 and since 2001 in Brookvale.  Jodie is internationally renowned in the yoga community having taught and given seminars around the world.

The Bikram yoga series was developed over 50 years ago (the original hot yoga!). It is specifically designed to build overall strength and flexibility, aid faster recovery from injuries and enhance and prolong other sporting activities.

The yoga has fantastic results helping swimmers with some of the most common injuries and complaints. We work closely with several Ironman and Ultra Ironman competitors.  The series of postures is designed improve mobility through all joints and is especially effective at loosening the shoulder and neck area. The heated room builds a mind over matter outlook to develop mental strength and determination.  Breathing is key in swimming and in yoga! A regular yoga practice can definitely improve breath techniques in the water.

Mike, 74, started Bikram Yoga at the age of 70. He wrote this when he had just started. “I am now 3 months into Bikram Yoga and have a long way to go in many of the postures but I am feeling the benefits. My rotator cuff problems in my shoulder are fast disappearing and I can now get almost full movement.”

$25 includes dinner at Bluewater. Please book via http://www.boldandbeautifulmanly.com.au/bb-bluewater-monthly-dinner.html

    Thanks Elizabeth, always nice to reflect upon the morning. Who is the magnificent butterflier? All credit to him.
    Dear Stevie appears to have become our unofficial mascot…he seems to have acquired this position by leaning on people!

    As cormac McCarthy dispenses with apostrophes I am getting an extra one or two in. To restore balance. Or I made a boo’boo’
