Pirate spotted at Ride100 - quite early (not sure of exact time though) in between Kingston and Hampton Court (just before the first hub) - I shouted "Go on pirates" and got a "Wayhay!" in response! Who was that? I was running 38 miles from Shepperton to the finish line (via a lot of the parks!) to meet my other half!
Pirate spotted at Bishops Stortford Hockey Club this morning, wearing Ironman in training hood with name Nick on it. Sorry didn't get a chance to say hello to busy herding kids.
Met a lady Pirate in disguise/retirement at Chester marathon last weekend, had a long chat in the start chute and ran the first few miles together, then she disappeared into the distance!
I think her name started with an M and she said she had been lying low for a while, but try as hard as I could, I can't remember!

Flat footed was in Pirate garb and off quite early.
Anyone doing the people's tri this weekend? I am cheering kids tomorrow and then doing the oly on Sunday If I can fit in my wettie....
Cougie, at the Pondarosa Cafe at the top of horseshoe pass above Llangollen
Was forced into stealth mode... As we had 25 plus starters we got a group photo with Cav and set of in a group before all the plebs
he was trying to sneak a peek at your power meter numbers......
On the start line ?
red stripe was there but she isnt a chap
I spoke to a pirate in transition briefly at Ely...he definitely looked and sounded like a bloke!
I'm guessing red stripe was racing incogonito but not dressed as a chap.
If anyone saw a smiley Tri-anglian lady grinning like a loon , yep that was me
That was me Alibear
Spotted a few lurking with intent around lake 32 this afternoon.
Mmm... Discussing how little training had been done
Hope that works!

that would be the most fantastic Monique who was one of the first 3 pirates
You are honoured to have met her Effing...one of the most amazing and lovely pirates there has been...
Pirate spotted about 5 minutes ago in T1 on the Kona live feed
yeah... I saw that... who was it? didn't look like Funkin, but looked like a male, so definitely not Flyaway!
Yes it was! Thanks, I am crap with names! and yes a lovely lady and Pirate Royalty to boot! Lucky me
She is also as mad as a box of frogs ... In all the best possible ways

Oh & Scuba Trooper you now know that was me at the hockey club, nice to meet you.
It's just a yellow visor I think, not Pirate.
You can see Richard in his Pirate top in the early stages of the bike and its me at 4:19ish - if you look closely you can see Pirate kit.
Unfortunately I was scoffing a orange ice lolly at the time.
Askern Leisure Centre - I spotted your pirate sticker on your car ...?
