Hi All,
We had a
very brisk start to our duathlon season yesterday. Jumpers and jackets
were dragged out of the drawer, lots of body hugging went on, but really it was
ideal conditions for our event.
Competitors
got more than they expected with a couple of the legs being a little longer
than advertised. Beach running and well as wind also made this one to
brag about. Well done everyone.
Our thanks
to RD Nerida Godfrey and all the wonderful volunteers for their efforts.
Nerida & family spent a lot of time prior to the event sweeping
corners, removing glass and generally doing a million things to get the course
race ready. Volunteers did even more broom pushing to remove piles of
glass which appeared overnight. End result was a great event for our club
members. Thank you all we appreciate your contribution.

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN …
… you
compete with your partner for the lowest resting heart rate.
… you wait
a couple of days to take your car in when the "check engine” light goes
on, but when your bike needs a tune up you take it right away.
… some of
the best conversations you have are during long runs and rides. Mainly when
you're going solo.
Safe training,
Cheers,
Robyn
