Welcome 9sqrun. Sounds like you're local to Wigan. There's OW swimming at Three Sisters too if that's of any interest to you?
Hi Pudge,
From hilly Southport...tried the 3 sisters in early May (f..f..freezing & first ow swim ever!) and was ill for the next week, did not go again as I had a tri the following week (need more ow swimming!).
For those at Outlaw, I will be bringing them with me tomorrow evening.
For those taking part, I have arranged for Barlos to take them to the pub with him on Monday. It will be up to you to find him as he does not have the attention span to come and find you. . If you do not manage to find him (although he is pretty hard to miss) he will post them out for me on Tuesday
For those on the Feedstation - Barlos will hand them to you on Sunday
After reading Pirate Andy Holgates blog/book i am hooked.
I am signed up for the following races:
Marlow Half Ironman
London Triathlon
Berlin Marathon
1m swim in Loch Lomond
Wanaka Challenge Full IM.
I turned 40 this year and have done my 1st ever Marathon (being from Scotland i thought it best that Edinburgh was a good place to start) London will be my first Tri. I havent done any swimming for over 25yrs so that has been interesting. Going to qualify for Boston in Berlin, but the crazy bit is signing up to a full IM in New Zealand, the reason is that i will still be 40.
So when i look back i can say when i was 40
1st Marathon, Open water swim, Qualify for Boston and a full IM
Ooh, excellent, we'll have three of the spares, please Schmunks; Squish ripped hers (from 2 or 3 orders ago; we had them before IMCH) the other day in OW! I suppose it was the years of chlorine from pool swimming!
sorry didnt reply sooner I've been on my hols but had the lovely swim caps waiting for me when I got in last night after a 4hr delay thanks to Greece air traffic control being on strike!
Spanker - I only got your address on Tues which was after the caps were posted on Friday (I had previously asked for addresses on Jun 26 and Jul 4). Your package is sitting on my computer desk waiting til I have chance to post it out
Sorry for the delay, but I don't work near a Post Office and so have to drive into town and pay to park. For this reason, I try to keep my trips to the PO to as few as poss, hence why I asked for addresses twice before sending out everyone else's. I couldn't hold up the posting of all other parcels because I was missing one address

It would be good to have the iutstanding payments so I can start sending out the caps....
Cheers
(I am aware gazhilla and Ghostess may not have received payment details so they are excused detention later )
