Yes it is warm in bed but get up and get the beach! Hundreds have learned the secret that all you have to do is just get to the beach and then you are glad. People were swimming at 6 and 609 and about a thousand people were swimming at 630 and then different numbers at different times. Please paddlers, runners, a boat, gazing at the horizon and of course the FFF.
Donna and Andrea brightened up my day before their fabulous swim
John said the swim was great.
Nature favours the FFF - shady everywhere but for a spot of sun on them. Such a vigorous group
Like any tribe, the FFFs stick together
Make a note in your diary: The min-mermaids are raising funds for turtles. If you take account of their ages and the number of years they have been supporting turtles, it is a very high proportion. Who said maths is not a key life skill
Grab a chance - first 6km opportunity tomorrow
SUMMER BADGES
As the Summer swimming season approaches, we look forward to our Summer swim challenges. By popular demand, we have decided to retain the summer challenge and super swimmer badges which were both well-received last summer. This year we will have the following badges:
- Summer Challenge - swim 30 times over summer (1 Dec to 28 Feb), and swim in at least 7 different weeks
- Summer Super Swimmer - swim 50 times over summer
Three long distance swims are also on offer, all of which earn a badge:
- A 6 km swim will be held every summer Saturday morning (depending on conditions) generally starting at 7 am. The first 6 km swim will be on Saturday 3rd December.
- There will be a 10 km swim once a month over summer also starting with the 7 am swim. Dates for these will be announced in the blog. The first 10 km swim will be on 10th December.
- If these swims are too long for you, you can try a Triple Manly to Shelly swim any day during Summer (distance 3.5 km) from 6.30 or 7 am.
If you are unsure of the routes and protocols for these swims, please ask at the desk before you swim. When swimming these longer distances, we request that, for safety reasons, you stay with the group. We also request that you do not swim in dangerous conditions. The quest for a little cloth badge is not worth putting your life at risk. Enjoy your swimming. In order to be eligible for any/all of these badges you must log your swims in i-Log. If you don’t have a log-in, please contact Ian ([email protected]) .
