Thursday 22 March: Just like a Swedish Boxer

22/03/20184

Conditions for the Bold & Beautiful swim this morning were just like a Swedish Boxer – tough but fair.

But that’s how we roll at the B&B. The experts call it a Growth Mindset. A way of welcoming challenge and taking control of the conditions. Like being an inverse paranoid who believes the world is conspiring to do him good. I think our 65 swimmers this morning had a growth mindset. Swimmers this morning took on the challenge – some through the double breaking surf and others from half-way. Some swam early in the dark while others preferred the light. That was the case for Rainer and Julia considering the conditions:

 

While Matt considered conditions after the swim:

 

Other like Izzy took a dip between the flags…

 

Special thanks to the girl, the builder and the fireman who collectively worked out how to get the SD card out of the camera:

And why not add some glamour to the Growth Mindset idea:

 

 

And of course the crazy cute Mimie, Sol and Zane enjoying breakfast with their yummy mums:

 

With Dorsett’s Growth Mindset he’s looking forward to 2k ks in August…

 

And Sterling still dreaming about coming in first with the A team:

 

And finally Jeff and Fiona enjoying a Growth Mindset moment…

 

Looking forward to growing my mindset with you.

    Thx Pete – it really was all about the “mindset” today! For those in NZ – good timing! The waves were huge out the back – thank goodness Jon & I waited for a little light and went out at 6.30 today as those who went out in the dark got quite a scare:)
