Today is the first day of the rest of your life. Every morning we wake up to a new beginning, new thoughts, new opportunities and a chance to ‘give it a go’, a clean slate if you wish. Easter means different things to different people. Luckily, we are free to put any which meaning...

100 Bold and Beautiful swimmers swam this morning and were greeted by the most magnificent sunrise just at The Point . Sunrise was at 7.04am today on this warm, stunning THURSDAY! The night was muggy, the swim was refreshing… with waves! First light over Cabbage Tree Bay looked like this. Swimmers arrive and the boy...

YET another beautiful swim this morning! We had heard reports of swarms of blue bottles on the way to Shelly so we decided to head north! John Kelly gave the announcement …..(he still managed to get stung going north tho!!) (Also welcome back to John Kelly after his 60 hour birthday celebration…he made it!!) Two...

What a hive of activity the beach was this morning!  There were the usual surfers, who, much like seagulls you just expect to be hanging out for a wave.  Plus the surf boat mob training for precision scaring of early entry B&B’ers. . .  The soft sand classic must be coming up because there is...

103 Bold & Beautiful swimmers swam this morning. Getting to the surf club early gives you time to contemplate the week ahead   Or to take a break from a busy schedule. Here is Wilf arriving after filming his interview with TV host Ellen de Generes. Apparently he couldnt miss his morning swim so she flew...

213 BnB’ers turned up in anticipation….there’s a rumour out there …there’s a certain badge to be had! Let’s see what the fuss is all about? 6.50am and the crowds start to arrive …. I’ve heard there’s a Badge to be had? How do we get one? This guy seems to know about them! “How’s my...

Late March in Sydney – the warm days are coming back for the weekend. It’s a little bit darker in the morning and some of us need the alarm to get going but once you’re on your feet it’s all good…   It was a little hazy this morning but looked nice and flat for...

Another stunner of a morning. According to Ian Forster’s skilled temperature taking skills, the water is at 22.4 degrees. Is that a medium temp, I wonder, as the bay this morning was still affected in patches by last night’s dumping of Manly Freezer’s oversupply of ice cubes. Brrr. We were 118 swimmers and had three lovely...

It really is magical witnessing these sunrises we’ve been getting lately, but to swim below them across an Aquatic Reserve is even more breathtaking… So 112 lucky swimmers took the plunge in sensational conditions this morning… The morning kicked off with some ‘Frosty Nutters’ going off to Queensie at 6.15am and then  a group at...

LOOK AT IT!!! It’s totally amazing at the moment out there (unless you’re a surfer then it’s disgusting) Warm, Calm, CLEAR…and about 104 BnB swimmers experienced it I swear this is not an optical illusion! 😀   Everyone looks so happy to be here! 😉 Well Midge certainly does having just come back from an...
