Congratulations to Greg on reaching 1000KMS in the B&B Pacific Challenge.
I was lucky enough to swim with Greg & the 35+ swimmers in the 6.30 Drinks Express.
This lady kindly swept the ramp of the sharp pumice stone in time for the 7am horde.

The promenade and beach were extra busy this morning.
Attracta & Jenny came dressed for the chilly conditions.
Zion & Angela also in warm hats
Welcome back Justice glad you're feeling well enough to enjoy the B&B beach experience again. We missed you.
Two of my favourites Nat & Clair.
I joined the only inhabited table at the benches had great conversation but then chill was too cold for me.
So I moved onto the buzz and start of the Manly Soft Sand event.
Soft Sand Prizes for 21km, 9km and 1.6km races.
Ready Set Go!
Finally I moved to the warmth of Manly Wine to enjoy the company of these guys
while I selected the shots for today's blog.
Have a great week ahead.....
Simon
