Even in the shadow of the shark attack at Coogee, Shaun Clyne and Kellie Wheelahan explain why Sydney’s premier “journey swim” remains a must-do in their family.

This couple hasn’t missed a Bondi to Bronte swim in 25 years

Nothing gets in the way of the annual Bondi to Bronte Ocean Swim for Shaun Clyne and Kellie Wheelahan, and next Sunday the couple will line up for a remarkable 25th consecutive year.

Clyne, a veteran corporate lawyer and partner at MinterEllison, and Wheelahan, a language teacher at The Scots College, have prioritised the event over birthdays, holidays and christenings – not to mention the race that took place just six weeks after the birth of their son in 2007.
