Wednesday 14 August - challenging ourselves !

Wednesday 14th August - something was missing - that yellow ball of nourishing energy that is the sun, for starters, and lake Manly had also disappeared..... and after 1055 days, it is with gratitude that we appreciate the enormity of Guy's daily efforts to inform us of the temperature, and...

Wednesday 24th July - the return of the Upwelling!

Wednesday 24th July - the week the upwelling made a triumphant return to Manly after a year or so away - testing our resilience, our mind set, and our bravery (or craziness)... also, upwelling sounds a little like a horror movie, and for some, it probably felt like it as... Continue reading

Wednesday 3rd July - Orange and black: orange skies and the black puffer!

Wednesday 3rd July - Few swimmers dragged themselves (or was that joyfully leapt?) out of warm beds today - however those who braved the arctic vortex were rewarded. After a cold, rainy, wintery pre dawn, the clouds parted as though on cue at 7am to reveal a bright orange ball... Continue reading

Wednesday 12th June - Toasty toes!

Wednesday 12th June and an arctic vortex has engulfed Sydney and brought long awaited snow to the ski fields (well, perhaps snow in training)... Arctic voretex's also bring out footwear challenges - how to keep our delicate toes toasty after a winter infusion of vitamin sea? The ocean, however, defies... Continue reading

Wednesday 22 May - Atomic Habits... small actions to reach big goals

Wednesday 22 May - 9 days until winter... each day brings more chill to the air! The water, however, teases us... one day dropping in temperature, the next, increasing, confuddling everyone with decisions - is it time for neoprene, or am I brave enough to obvigate the need for neoprene...

Wednesday 24th April - its all about the "Merch"!

Wednesday 24th April started with a brilliant sky show of shades of red, orange, yellow and calming, energising golden light.... and then the cloak of clouds morphed into 50 shades of grey..... i wonder what the red sky in the morning will bring us today? the old saying - red... Continue reading

Wednesday 3rd April - the calmness before dawn...

Wednesday 3rd April - the calmness in the dark, before dawn breaks. Early swimmers brave the black water, the flickering lights on their goggles twinkling like fireflies in the dark... The DPI contractor checks the shark nets, the Manly Life Saving Club athletes warm up on the sand in front... Continue reading

Wednesday 28 February - feeling blue

Under moody skies, reflecting the sadness of the Bold & Beautiful community who have lost stalwarts Ted de Jager and Justus Potgeiter in the last week, after a few stellar days with dolphins and turtles bringing smiles and joy, mother nature decided that she also must mourn... sending choppy seas...

Wednesday 17th January - Variety, Vigilance, Valour, Valiant Versatility

Wednesday 17th January - a day for the, in the words of Sir Humphrey (IYKYK!), "Courageous decisions"... To swim or not to swim? A day to impersonate a tea bag? Long immersion to infuse the oceans energy or a swift dip for a small taste? A day to be Valorous,... Continue reading

Wednesday 25th October - Weird Wednesday in the Bay!

Wednesday 25th October - seemed full of "weirdness" for some reason. Firstly the sky was weirdly eerie - a red dawn followed by a thickening cloud stealthily slowly blanketing the city from the south, transforming the seas from calm to calamity .... Perhaps also due to the advent of "Scorpio... Continue reading

Todays blog is brought to you from Thredbo, where I am skiing for a few days. Did you know that Thredbo is also a destination for "wild swimming"? and, at altitude one can truly say that they "get high" from swimming! Last year a marvel of brave mermaids squealed with... Continue reading
