Hi All,
Our Kerran
Mudgway Memorial Club Championships continues to grow and is well supported by
our members and their families & judging by the comments on our Facebook page,
enjoyed by all.
Being 80
odd kilometres down the track the event takes much organising and our Race
Director Shaye Hatty did a brilliant job rallying all our wonderful volunteers
to ensure competitors had a great race experience.
Shaye was
ably assisted by 2IC Phill & 3IC Jack and a great band of people who all
chipped in to set swim courses, man drink stops, turnaround points, marshall,
time keep, provide post-race refreshments, cover technical official duties and
a zillion other things. There are too many to name (for fear of
inadvertently overlooking someone) but we are very grateful for their
contribution on Saturday.
We can now
look forward to recovering and having some fun at our annual teams event this
Sunday. If you haven’t done this before, grab a couple of fellow team
members, think up a theme if you want and come on down on Sunday for some
tri-ing with a difference.

OTHER NEWS:
1.
Our sincere condolences to Margaret Hatty & Phill Hatty on the loss of
their husband & step dad Robert (Bob) Smith. Bob and Margaret have
been smiling faces and willing volunteers at many of our events. RIP Bob.
2. We
wish Dee Walsh a speedy recovery. Dee is a new member and was to compete
at Lake Bennett. Unfortunately she suffered a broken leg in a fall from
her bike last week. Now a candidate for our Broken Spoke Award.
3. It
was great to hear the satisfaction & excitement in the voices of some first
time finishers at Lake B on Saturday. It has given many the confidence to
step up the distance and have a go at the NT Olympic Distance next month.
4. In
an amazing show of sportsmanship, our new club champion Tim Green waited for 2nd
placed Brett Verity who had accidently collided with one of the drink station
kids during their final laps of the run. As this all happened behind him Tim
would have been forgiven had he continued but instead his instinct on hearing
the noise, was to stop and wait in case he could help.
5. Team
themes – we have had some great ones in the past. It’s encouraged but
optional. Want to be in a team or need an extra in yours? Post a
message on our Facebook page and don’t forget to LIKE us while you are there.
6.
Got a friend who is interested in triathlon? Now is the time to join – we

Cheers,
Robyn
