I’d forgotten that Mousa had died - a few years ago now I think. He created an event that everyone who’s done Toughguy looks back on with rose tinted glasses - on the day it was a fucking nightmare with the hills, mud, tunnels, barbed wire, fire etc.

We need to try and put a name to them all :wink:

women, man in yellow, Daz, Sue, man in red, whitey, black tshirt, Mike, hat guy, Ed M, other guy, The blue tshirt, was he called Steve? and yellow lady.

woman = bruiser I think
man in yellow … might be Chris (he’s top right in the lower picture)
Daz,
Sue,
man in red,
whitey,
black tshirt … think this is Big Bopper
Mike,
hat guy … suspect he’s just walking past in the background
Ed M,
other guy,
The blue tshirt, was he called Steve? - that’s Ray
and yellow lady

That’s it, got him muddled with another guy, I knew the face!

Big Bopper in black is right and I think the guy in red was called Gavin?

Not sure where to put this. Tough swim!!!

I could be mistaken but I think I read/head that Ironman (eventually) recognised the issue and have stepped up with free entries or something like that to next years race.

Luckily “RipTide” wasn’t there :wink:

Has he disappeared from the scene? I know he was punting himself as some kind of guru back after his notorious adventures, and he became an overnight ‘sensation’.

They need to do an Ironman Chepstow; one way swim should take about 15 min if they time it right. Just need a net to catch anyone who overshoots :rofl:

I have no idea as I rarely bother with IMJ as its a hassle getting Dan Reef out. Also they are all just groups of coach spam these days. When the woman , Janice or something, took over and started banning everyone who disagreed with someone, it lost all the decent people. Even IMJ sub 10 fell apart because of that coach/ex pro clown and that dumb yank who thinks he’s better than everyone, Jeremy or something
