Happy Feet NL features : The Mermaid Club - #livelifemakewaves

The MermaidClub ~
I must be a mermaid, I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living

Anaïs Nin

The Mermaid Club* launched their website yesterday!

The Mermaid Club aims to inspire and motivate women who participate in all aspects of fitness including biking, running, swimming to just moving your fins! We are an online global community for women who think big, make things happen, inspire others and seek a sense of accomplishment and achievement in all we do in every day life. (quoted from the website)

 Happy Feet in the Netherlands is a proud ambassador of #TMC*! #livelifemakewaves

 In celebration of HFNL joining a "fintastic" mermaid revolution - baby pedals to try the TRI - #TMC will be featured here in a series of blogs.


The first in the series is  #TMC giveaways hosted by HFNL !

The second in the series will be a feature of #TMC's founder Helena Redshaw aka @Running_Mermaid, whom I met via Twitter in the last weeks of training for Berlin Marathon,which she ran in 2012, the same year I did.

And the third will be a feature of the three winners of the #TMC giveaway.

Follow this #TMC blog series for inspiration, motivation and a sneak peak on the fun as @HappyFeetNL makes baby paddles towards trying for the TRI!

What more you have a chance to be the next proud owner of an exclusive #TMC shirt & exclusive swimming cap!
