Hi All,
This will be the last E News for 2009 so I'd like to take the opportunity to wish all readers a very happy Christmas and all the best for the new year where ever you may be.
I've enjoyed bringing you the mixed bag of tri news and info. that is the e news. My apologies for the odd typo, some of you have occasionally appeared faster than normal, others (though not too often I hope) have had some time added due to the odd slip of a finger (or non wearing of glasses) !
Darwin Triathlon Club is fortunate that our members have such positive experiences here that they often enjoy receiving the E News when they move. Thanks to those of you now living interstate and overseas who check in regularly. Thanks also to our members who point me in the right direction, particularly those who let me know events to watch for.
E News will be back in your inbox early January.
