27/4/2014 – A stormy yet stunning …

… Manly ! 🙂

The perfect day for a Ted hug … or a hug from Ted … Tug ? hed ? … either way, Jane was happy 😉

And the perfect opportunity to bring your special friends out to play without the usual supervision required 😉

and for me to say a big thank you to my wingmen … THANK YOU Team JK x

As discussed in previous blogs, the swim is not a race … BUT ! if it was …

There is only one silver fox winner in my eyes 😉 Go Jeff !

There were a couple of other winners in our midsts today;  The McLoonatic and The Spaniard competed in “Narrathon” yesterday …

Mark won his competition comprising of:

Ski 8km
Beach Run 3k
Oean swim 1k
Board Paddle 2.5

JP won something too … not sure what ? … most stylish footwear perhaps ?

 … at least that was until Marty McFly dropped back from the future to ask for his shoes back …

True to form, there will be no fish from me (see Elaine/Stephen/Nick’s FB) but last nights recruitment drive was a success:

Stephanie from Canada, Matt from Belrose, Scott from Marriott, Jay from Manly, Patrick from McMahons Point, Jamie from Collaroy, Nick from Manly, Scott from Manly, Andres from Norway and Aroan from Brazil …. keep you eye out for them !

THANK YOU ! for being so game 🙂

And a special mention to this upstanding guy who goes by the name of Sebastian Terry.

If like me you haven’t met him at the swim and aren’t familiar with the name already, check out Sebastian’s website and feel yourself thoroughly inspired 🙂

AND FINALLY … one of these two lovely ladies (the smartly dressed one on the left)  is competing in the June Ironman in Cairns. Claire is a regular B & B’er (as is Emily, of the Dave and Serena Washbrook variety) and is raising money for a very good cause for those who wish to contribute 🙂
