3. Who was that accountant who did a couple of extra laps of the pool at Palmerston yesterday?
4. There is so much broken glass around on the roads & bike paths at the moment a ride can end up being a very frustrating and expensive exercise. I've even resorted to street sweeping around our place and picking up any stray bottles before they become yet another pile of broken glass. Whatever happened to "put it in the bin"!
5. Thanks to those who have already placed their club tri gear orders. I encourage you all to get in early so that there is no delay and also to take advantage of the 10% discount offer. (Note: Prices shown on the uniform pdf are full price - discount prices are shown on order form). We have a big season coming up, so make sure you order enough to get you through all that training and racing to come. Also we are ordering on demand so if you don't purchase this time around there is no guarantee when we will do another order and limited stock (if any) will be held by the club.
6. Some big efforts at yesterday's race had a couple of the guys hugging trees at the end.
7. If you haven't checked out the Triathlon Australia website for awhile it's improved 100% www.triathlon.org.au
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN...
... you cross the finish line with a smile
... you have read the Age Group Selection Policies for the 2009 ITU World Championships events (Gold Coast - OD & SD; Perth - LD)
... you ignored the weather and have swum through June, July, August - minus wetsuit!
Safe training,
Cheers
