Winter swimming!!! Yes it can be cold and you suffer from cold bottomitis during the day, but it also comes with its pleasures. The water is nice and clear, it's only your fellow loonies dedicated enough to get up in the dark and head down to Manly Surf Lifesaving Club and you get to see spectacular sunrises just like this.
I am on a quest to get a "nice" photo of LesBubs. Here she is with Ian.
Jo, Val and Lainey were doing their best to keep warm.
Sheena and Karen - looking ever so stylish as always.
The WOW's have been replaced by the FAF's - two Fi's and Annie.
Cheryl and Lisa.
Finishers of the 6.30 swim as we entered the water.
It was a lovely morning for a swim once the sun had come up.
Yes, it was before 7am for these two lovelies - don't let anyone tell you anything different.
I bumped into these two in the middle of my swim - they said they'd never had a blog photo in the middle of their swim before!!
Have a great day and see you winter swimming soon.
Monthly Dinner – 14th August 2018 – Guest Speaker
The next B&B monthly dinner for the year will be held on Tuesday 14th August at 6.30 pm at Bluewater Restaurant. Our guest speaker on the night will be B&B swimmer, Brendan Maher. Brendan, who describes himself as a very average swimmer, managed to overcome a chronic shoulder injury and swim the English Channel in July 2017. He will speak of his motivation, training for the swim, and what it's like for the average swimmer to attempt a marathon swim. This talk will be an inspiration to all of us who count ourselves in the ‘B Team’ (or even the Zeds!).
The cost of the dinner is great value at only $25 a head, which includes shared entrees, and a selection of mains to choose from (including a vegetarian option). Glasses of beer or wine and desserts are also available at the special price of only $5 each. Numbers are limited, so bookings are essential: To avoid disappointment and secure your spot please book HERE.
