E NEWS - 1 JULY 2015
There wasn't a hint of a croc at Darwin Surf Life Saving's Fannie Bay Swim
Classic at the weekend. With so many of the fantastic Surf Lifesaving crew
out on the water, they wouldn't have dared.
I'm reliably informed it is the safest open water swim around with a ratio
of one water safety officer to five competitors!!
It was perfectly timed and a good hit out for many triathletes ahead of
Blue Cycles NT Long Course Triathlon which is taking place on Sunday at
Lake Bennett (see below).

1. Ironman
France, 3.8km swim, 180km bike, 42.2km run
Nikki Roddie
7th F40-44 11:34:49
2. Fannie Bay Swim 2.1km
