Inspirational weekend for Newborns great atmosphere, amazing generosity and team spirit. Incredible success for Lam Ngan (Young Bird) overall fastest Vietnamese woman, first in age group 18-24 and qualified for the World Championship in South Africa.  Powerful Women for Newborns first place in the female relay, a truly inspirational effort from Chi, Hoa and Phuong. Second place, male relay for Team Newborns, great swim from Frederik, an incredible ride or was it flying from David, hero of the day is Graham who gave his all to bring the team home with a brilliant second place. Amazing swim by Duy for our mixed team and as ever Son and Yen looked very cool as she crossed the finish line. Well done to Matt, Neil and Cosimo, and Richard veteran of so many Newborns events. Great to have the Normally Aspirated Human team all the way from the UK led by Luke, founder and leader of Newborns, Cycle a Difference. Huge thanks to Dimity Lee Duke for her support, crossing the finish line waving the Newborns flag and taking second place. An emotional moment as the Powerful Women and Young bird visited the neonatal nursery and presented their donation board to Dr Hoang.

Good feedback for our new kit and thanks to our sponsor Regna.
