Hi All,
Many of you
feeling the dry season chill will be happy that we ditch the swim on Sunday as
we launch into the Duathlon season. The run, bike, run duathlon format is
an awesome workout and the Lee Point course is one that provides its own
challenges. For our new members, transition is located at the very end of
Lee Point Road (past the caravan park and down the hill).
Our start
time is 7.30am so you also have an extra half hour snuggle time, but do make
sure you are out at Lee Point early enough to be set up. Please note
registration closes at 7.15am sharp.
Urgent:
We need a couple of
volunteers to marshal some key corners on Sunday. If you can assist
please email here and include your best contact number.

after all. Investigations ongoing.
Safe training,
Cheers,
