Marlow - Water Of Life - 1/2 Marathon (22 March 2009)

Once again Avondale were the top Water Polo club, this time at the Marlow 1/2 Marathon. A lovely flat route and beautiful weather made for a very picturesque run along the banks of the Thames between Marlow and Henley. Angus had his better half deputise for him and Amy came home second in the ladies (and beat most of the men!).


Peter managed to win the zimmer frame age group (anyone need a Stannah lift voucher) and he, Dave and Jonnie all posted personal bests. Rumours reached the organisers that Jonnie did the middel third in the River, but no disqualification resulted. A mystified masseur spent a fruitless 20 minutes trying to separate Jonnies legs after the event.

Avondale - the top team in and out of the water!

See below, the weird man inserting something in one of Jonnie's blowholes.... Notice look of discomfort on Jonnie's face! Could form the basis of a caption competition.......
