20 tri-athletes swim from the ramp every Monday. I caught some of them suiting up. They are training for the Triathlon world championships in Weihai, China on Friday (26/9/25). The Tri Swim is 1500m. I reminded them that Manly’s famous Olympian Andrew Boy Charlton’s 1500m time was 20 min 6 secs (1928). The Tri boys assured me they are faster than Boy Charlton.
As our shelly swim is 1500m who else in the B&B can swim it faster than 20 mins 6secs?
Have a safe & enjoyable week ahead.

P.S. I’ve added a shot of Boy Charlton from the wall in the Manly LSC plus a video of Boy in action in 1928. Boy’s 1500m gold medal was @1924 Olympics in Paris (20 mins 15 secs)
