Well, Here I am again and another 3 weeks down the track.
The Spanish swimmer got across successfully last set of tides in 8.5 hrs but I am told conditions were not pleasant. Conditions went downhill after that swim and now here we are at another set of tides.
I managed 43km in the week after the last tides and have been easing off over the last week. On Sunday I reluctantly sat out the Auckland Central Masters Rangi swim which was run in perfect conditions.
Missing Rangi was the right call in hindsight as I had a call from Philip Rush tonight and he's taking a swimmer across tomorrow and I'm packing my bag for Wednesday and hoping the weather holds.
We are dealing with Wellington weather here so there is still a strong element of chance involved.
I should know one way or another late afternoon tomorrow so my next blog will hopefully be from Wellington tomorrow night.
Watch this space
Got my fingers, toes and the 3 hairs on my head crossed for Wednesday Geoff
