Yesterday we were in Tenby to watch Pete take part in an Iron Man. We had been on tenterhooks all week because Pete had been training earnestly in the three disciplines had a calf strain last weekend so his participation was in doubt.For those of you who don&#8217;t know it involves a 2.5 mile sea swim, 112 mile bike ride and a full marathon!!! Makes you tired just thinking about it!\u00a0We are exhausted just from the support, we were up at 5 a.m.\u00a0to watch the\u00a07 a.m. start and we got back to Frampton at 1 a.m. Monday. It is tough work being an Iron Man supporter!\u00a0As we were in the thousands on the sea front a choir struck up with the evocative Welsh National Anthem\u00a0\u00a0which was beautifully joined in by the crowd. It does make you jealous of other nations stirring anthems compared to our dirge! The swim was hard to pick him out in the thousands but we had good views of the cycling and the ride! Picture of him at on the run at the bottom of the blog.<\/p>\n<p>The Story Telling all went well last week and more bookings have come in over the last few days. <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2746\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/?attachment_id=2746\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 5s&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1568563802&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;32&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0013404825737265&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_1350\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?fit=584%2C438&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2746\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?resize=584%2C438&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thestorytraveller.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1350.jpg?resize=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Really proud Dad today (well always a proud Dad).
