Huskisson Triathlon Festival – Ocean Swim Classic 1km

We’d booked ahead to avoid disappointment, and avoid it we did.

Myself and Minnie The Minx and I whizzed down to Huskisson a couple of weeks ago for the 1km Ocean Swim Classic. That’s just one of the first events of the fantastic weekend that is the Huskisson Triathlon Festival.

Thanks so much Kate from Huskisson B & B for taking all these photos.

Please excuse my egomania in showing all these photos.

Please also excuse all the cellulite!

Fantastic to meet a fellow Can Too swimmer.

A sea eagle flew right over the beach.

My mum’s out there.

The women’s race starts off. We went out and around two big buoys then back to the green buoy.

That’s me coming out

A very rare sight, sprinting Smith.

Hooray! Did it, and feeling fab.

It’s so very true that you never regret a swim.  I went quite hard at this one and did the 1km swim in about 25 minutes.

That’s good for me, but pretty slow compared to most folks.  I came third last in the 40 – 49 age group.

Loved it. LOVED IT!!

Here’s to health at any size and enjoyment at every speed.

Linking in with Trish for Wordless Wednesday – thanks for hosting Trish.

Have you caused a commotion in the ocean lately?
