OTHER NEWS:
1.
New member Tahnee Coonan did her first full triathlon out at Jabiru at the
weekend and won the women’s division.
2. Disappointment
for Dave McLeod and Angelika Hannon at North Face 100 with dnfs, but both got
to the 54km mark before calling it a day. That’s a mighty effort in
anyone’s language.
3.
Some of our members were spotted training at Lake Bennett at the weekend.
They included some from Katherine who have “Katherine mob” gear to wear at
Ironman Cairns. Looks good, they will be easy to spot as will DTC members
wearing our very distinctive colours.
4.
Good luck to John Arrigo and Corinne Fabian who head for Europe later this week
to compete in the 2013 ITU Long Distance Triathlon World Championships in
France. Wish them luck before they go over to join the TA Age Group team.
5.
Looking forward to Ironman Australia with breakfast tomorrow. IM OZ will
be on OneHD tomorrow at 8am and repeated again on the weekend. Check local TV
guides.
6. No
stopping Javier Gomez who has now added a half iron distance win to his list of
achievements.
7.
Seems half iron distance is now the new “short” race.
8.
Moira Wigley is happy to do the swim for a team on Sunday. Anyone want to
ride, run?
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN …
... you
finally find a gel flavour you look forward to consuming
... your
running and cycling shoes live under the fan
... you
think of two or three races as being a big year (those ironpersons can relate
to this one)
Cheers,
Robyn
