One spot remaining....sign up now!!!!!!!
I am DISTRAUGHT to be missing this. Particularly the 30 m Ice Fly. Good luck, you brave people! Take plenty of warm clothes....
So just to confirm Tony...Haren will be taking the last spot in the Windrush D team?
Tony said:
Don't worry Corrina, having given this plenty of careful thought, and remembering how much fun the Brockwell winter gala was, I have decided to fall on my sword and volunteer Haren Thilainathan, who has asked me to coach him through his first triathlon in May, for the last place in the team.
As I explained to him swimming in January in Tooting lido will fully acclimatise him for the open water swim in Dorney lake in May.
No cake though as I have him on a carefully controlled athlete diet.

This is amazing that there are 16 and a half silly members of Windrush to take part in this willingly. (Rory's a half because he only signed up as a reserve)
Rory is no half, he is ALL MAN.
