Hi All,
Members will have received an email direct from Triathlon Australia regarding ITU Member-only entry applications for the age-group race to be held in conjunction with the Dextro Energy ITU World Championship race in Sydney. This opens at 9.00am (Australian eastern daylight saving time) today and you will also have now received another email detailing the link.
Didn't get the emails? That would be because you selected not to receive communication when you completed your online membership.

COMMITTEE NEWS:
1. OCHRE CARD: We would like to encourage all our volunteers who are involved with juniors to apply early for the new Ochre Card. Further information www.workingwithchildren.nt.gov.au
2. POLICY REGARDING NON MEMBERS PARTICIPATING AT CLUB EVENTS: Persons wishing to "try" a tri are encouraged to do so. Darwin Triathlon Club welcome those people via our One Day option. Please note this option may be used twice only after which you must be a full member to participate. A list is kept so please don't be offended if you turn up a third time and aren't permitted to race.
3. ONE DAY MEMBER FEE INCREASE: The fee for one day participants will increase to $30 from 1 January 2010.
4. VISITORS: Interstate visitors & members of other NT Tri clubs who are current Triathlon Australia members are warmly welcomed at our club events and are able to participate (at member rate) on production of their TA card.
4. ARAFURA GAMES TRIATHLON: FYI there is no one day option for the Arafura Games Triathlon. It is a condition of entry that all Australian participants are members of Triathlon Australia (DTC members note this is included in your annual club membership fee).
5. MEMBERSHIP FEES: Once the calendar ticks over to January we are often asked if our membership fees reduce because the year is half over. The short answer is NO. Darwin Triathlon Club offer members a huge range of events & activities across the whole year and the insurance and affiliation fees make up the largest portion of the fee and have to be paid regardless of time of year.

OTHER NEWS:
1. President Phill Hatty and better half Shaye, are heading for Phuket where they will participate in the Laguna Phuket Triathlon this weekend. It's a 1.8km swim, 55km bike, 12km run distance and Shaye is talking up her chances of being higher up the results list than Phill ! Good luck to both.
2. Lance Armstrong has announced he will be participating in a triathlon in NZ in the New Year. Amazingly enough it's not at an M Dot event, he's starting small !
3. Did you get your entry in for Challenge Cairns? I haven't heard that it filled.
4. I've had a few enquiries about club trisuits. We don't have any in stock. I have a couple of medium men's tri tops and a women's small tri top ($65). Also one pair of ladies medium 2 piece bathers ($55). Email if you are interested.
5. Your best option for trisuits is to ring your local bike store or shop online. Word of advice, take your measurements carefully and check against the manufacturers size chart. Tri suits aren't the sort of thing you can say "I always take medium" and hope for the best.
6. We may look at a further club uniform order in the New Year providing there is enough interest as minimum numbers are required.
7. Racing away and need a race belt? Please email if you haven't received one before as I still have a few Scody racebelts available for members at no cost.
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN ...
... you still have your first IM finishers towel in pristine condition
... you know not to wear light coloured bathers to Lake Alexander
... fixomull is your friend
Safe Training,
Cheers,
Robyn
