Newcastle Emlyn lifeguard David Maund and friend Al Banfield raised a hefty sum for the Cancer Research UK charity when participating in the recent Survival of the Fittest event at Cardiff Bay which attracted more than 3,400 competitors.

David Maund holds Hydrospin classes at swimming pools in the Teifi Valley, Ceredigion, Narberth and St. Clears, the exercise involving riding stainless steel bicycles waist deep in water, which is beneficial to fitness and health, weight loss and rehabilitation. He can be contacted on tel. 07792 351607.

The duo would like to thank everyone who sponsored them for the Cardiff event.
