Meet Nori
![]() I joined Wett Ones for fitness and friendship in May 2010. Prior to this I hadn't done any swim training since Uni in Japan more than a decade ago. When I first joined the club I remember that I was struggling to keep up with the training programs for ‘Lane 8'. Now, after more than a year with the club, I am pretty comfortable with regular training sessions and even started enjoying the tougher sessions, moving up to ‘Lane 7' in the process. I can see that I am becoming more competitive. When I was a student I competed often, mostly in breaststroke. It will be very difficult to get back to my peak level, but my secret goal is to break my record for the 100m & 200m breaststroke. (I know I need more training!!) Apart from swim training, since I joined Wett Ones, I've met lots of new people and enjoyed social activities such as the monthly cake night & Hunter Valley wine tour. Now I feel like Wett Ones has opened a new door for me to have a great time in Sydney. Meet Wayne " Old Gun returns"
![]() Wayne first joined Wett Ones in 1994, served as a committee member from 1998 to 2002 and continued swimming with the club until 2006. He posted PB's at the 2002 Sydney Gay Games with strong times in middle distance freestyle events. House renovations then building and moving his dental surgery took most of his free time for the next 5 years and swimming was put on hold. The 20th anniversary of the club coupled with an expanding waistline and some encouragement from other long-time members, Alexander and Frank, saw Wayne return to training at the beginning of March this year. "It's been a hard slog back to swim fitness and I didn't expect to enjoy being back in the pool as much as I have" says Wayne having lost seven kilos and worked his way back into lane six. "It shows up my strong self-competitive nature I guess but more importantly returning to Wett Ones gave me a great sense of belonging to a really wonderful group of people in a club that is better than ever. Seventeen years on - that's a great feeling."
