So today I was down on Abersoch beach watching the amazing athletes who competed in the 3 levels of triathlon runs today the hardest of which was the roc which involves a 12km swim then a 50Km cycle ride to Snowdon then a run up to the summit and back down then a 50K. Cycle ride back then a 1km run on the beach it took them hours and they were exhausted it was incredible to see the human endurance we were at the finish line for the first female competitor finishing after over 7 hrs and we were very privileged to be asked to hold the banner across the finish line for her - I feel so blessed - it was so inspirational and awe inspiring and we were photographed! What a fabulous way to celebrate my graduation🏃‍♀️🌟🏅😆

Wowsers! And I’m smug after 5k. I wonder how they train for all of that.

That makes me feel positively bone idle.

That is an amazing accomplishment by a bunch of certifiable nutters.
