Wildman Boy's Athletics

Big congratulations to Matt for completely the Blackmore’s Half Marathon last weekend.  It was a perfect day, great scenery and we only heard a few rumblings following the raceJ He caught a bus at 5:00AM and we picked up from the ferry station later that morning.   It would have been better if he wore the white tank top that they gave him for race day.

The Nippers Program is an institution in Australia.  Thousands of kids participate in Nippers across Sydney’s beaches every Sunday morning.  The program is designed to teach children to have fun on the beach, gain some fitness, and learn some good safety techniques.  Balmoral Beach (our neighborhood beach) is the most popular Nippers program in all of Sydney with over 600 children (ages 4 -11).  Therefore, they have a ballot process that is incredibly difficult to get into, and our dumb luck landed Cade on the list for this season.  The program starts late October and we are excited to be a part of it.  Stayed tuned for more pictures.

Cade finished his holiday tennis camp this week with a few of his friends from school.  My Mom arrives on Monday and we have lots of fun planned before Cade starts Term 4, his final term of kindergarten.
