Spotted two other pirates at the rather local Helmsley 10k in North Yorkshire. As they press ganged me into it, and then expected me to give them a lift to the race I, can confirm that it was HappyChap (Nicky) and Toucs(Alan).
Awesome job by Nicky to toe (sic: end of boot-toe) me round the course. Dropped me in the last km but still got me round quick enough to get a mug and an easter egg. They were down to the last 6 mugs so it was touch and go on the goodies.
As revenge Nicky is now being forced to plant potatoes in the veg garden.
Spotted two pirates at the start of the cotswold classic on Monday one was Red Stripe the other was wearing a pirate jacket started about 8:05-8:15 I didn't want to push forward but hope he had a good ride.

It's great how you can look at a photo like that (i.e. a photo of a thousand people) and your eyes are immediately drawn to the one person wearing pirate kit!
2 pirates spotted at IM Mallorca 70.3, 1 male 1 female. I gave a 'Go Pirate' and 'Yarrrrggghhhh' when I saw them on the run. Good work peeps, it was a hot one
Met Stanners at the Slateman yesterday - he's fast - nice chap. We both thought Budjude was there but did not see him. Will be on TV on 7th July at o'clock sparrow fart.

Yep! That was me! Started off nice and quick for about 10 miles and then sloooooowed right down!
Think that was me. I was wearing the pirate cap. Did you high 5 me at 15? If so you were looking good when you went past!

Went swimming at Pennington Flash tonight and spotted a Pirates swim cap....it was on someones head?
how was it today
i nearly went up today but prob going to go on sat now
'Twas me.
It was good Crooky. Only the shorter laps were open (400 & 750), but the temp was ok.
I'm sure I spotted an eel swimming underneath me at one point, which startled me!
thay said it was around 14 degrees, but it felt not too bad.....very choppy though and I swallowed quite a few waves!
Me too - It didn't taste that bad though, considering how brown it looked!

It's me.
Pirate in 220 in his best builder's costume!
Who's the pirate on the TriSmart page?

Hope he wasn't the person airlifted to hospital after suffering because of the cold (see update at top of page)
I think that might be an old photo as it looks like Monique but I could be wrong
If it's Ellesmere it could be Min ?
small enough to be Monique

Thank you for support on run yesterday - always good to get the encouragement. Saw Mitten on run, it was quite warm.
Good event in a user friendly location.
I spotted a certain Seren, IronScribe, Batty Hattie and Timebikes today at Blaenavon....such a fun course
Forgot to mention last week, saw a pirate set of arm warmers at North Dorset Villages marathon, not for long, they overtook me.
