2. Good luck to members heading to WA for the Busselton Half Ironman this weekend. They include Ian Norton, Wayne Fielder, Jac Crofton, Nikki Roddie, Kelly Rowe and Heath Porter.

3. Club life member Anthony Beven bobs up all over the place. Most recently Alice Springs Tri Club president Dean Nankivell was out for a run and thought he recognised another runner. Yes, it was AB.

4. Our Mothers' Day event looks like being very popular. It's also short n sweet so will be all wrapped up early.

5. Entry for Ironman Western Australia (5 Dec 2010) has sold out.

6. Entry for Ironman Australia (1 May 2011) at Port Mac opens online on 1 May 2010 at noon AEST.

7. There is also a same day event, Ironman 70.3 Port Macquarie.

8. M Dot and other major events worldwide sell out so fast these days you almost need to be planning two years ahead.

9. Midweek form: Rob Weatherald recovered quickly from his weekend efforts; Sue Parora still not feeling the best; Nerida Godfrey was seen tap dancing her way around the velodrome; Justin Tranter needs a weight belt to hold him back (or a lane change) at swimming and many got an extra ride in over the weekend judging by the number of bikes out there.

10. Looking forward to being inundated with the last of your uniform orders.

Safe Training,
Cheers,
Robyn
