Frankie and Fiona were battling the open waters of Wicklow beach this morning in training for the Sporting Proud triathlon next week.  Fiona found it was even a job to get into the water with the waves sending her flying much to Frankie’s amusement.  Anyhow, they set off and nearly managed to swim the 750m distance but the waves got the better of them and they ended up walking (or crawling haha) along the stones the last little bit.  Thankfully, for Fiona that was her ordeal over but Frankie then got on her bike for a 20km cycle.  Good woman Frankie.
