Hi All,
It was all action at Howard Springs Nature Park yesterday morning with very, very exciting racing. The guys especially were having a red hot crack!
A big thank you to Craig Garland who stepped in at the last minute when rostered RD was unavailable (Kim is recovering, & very skinny we hear). Thanks also to all the other volunteers who assisted with the event, your efforts were greatly appreciated by all competitors.

OTHER NEWS:
1. Close to 50 kids participated in the junior triathlon at the Ski Club. A special thanks to the many volunteers who helped out, especially those who don’t have kids participating. All the kids had great fun and all went smoothly. Luckily they were swimming in the Ski Club pool as a shark was spotted swimming just out the front of the Ski Club. The juniors are now looking forward to the Christmas Aquathlon with the Seniors on 6th Dec at Nightcliff pool at 6pm. Always a highlight on our calendar.
2. Ali Fitch was forced to withdraw on the run in IM Arizona this morning. Ali had come through the field into 3rd on the run before an injury sustained late on the bike took its toll.
3. The women's leaderboard at IM Arizona was a constantly changing affair. Gotta love those live race updates for excitment.
4. Keiran Doe did most of the run at IM AZ in his socks.
5. The pace was up at the duathlon yesterday and a few of the guys were redlining. One even forgot to dismount at the line. A couple of others came out of the roundabout like they had another lap to go & almost locked up at the dismount line. One lost some time with a wrong turn on the final run. But boys being boys they sure looked like they were having fun while they smashed themselves. Good to watch unfold.
6. The Evolution Stair Run filled up fast and closed quickly. Competitors will make the climb this weekend & they include a number of our members.
7. Christmas drinks were enjoyed on Friday. The diehards were last seen heading for Throb. Any news after that ???
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN...
... a new race location announcement raises your interest level
... you are happy the duathlon series is done and won
Triathlon 3 x the fun
Cheers
