Hi All,
We had
fantastic conditions for our Splash N Dash at the Waterfront on Saturday
evening.
With a
cruise ship for a back drop and dress up Christmas functions in full swing
around us, it was the perfect location!
A huge thank
you to RDs Stu & Ali Fitch, our equipment officer John Arrigo and the many
volunteers who helped stage this event for our members, your assistance was
very much appreciated by all who competed.
As if you
needed any reminders … the festive season is now well and truly here.
Already many of you have donned the Santa gear, reindeer antlers or been
jingling away at various Christmas functions and activities. The fun and
frivolity continued at the Variety Santa Run yesterday with many of our members
taking part.
We know
everyone gets crazy busy at this time of year but we are hoping you have added
our final event for 2013 to your social calendar. It’s our annual Xmas
Splash N Dash (details below) which is a combined junior/senior event.
Adults do
their race, juniors theirs and then it’s time for the highlight of the year –
the Junior/Senior Relay!! Competition stakes are high and we know some
creative team matching is already taking place.
Don’t
forget to be Christmas themed up for this one – be as elaborate or as simple as
you want. Invite is again attached.

YOU
KNOW YOU ARE A TRIATHLETE WHEN…
...
you don't care where, when, or what format - if the club puts on the event you
are in.
…
you can dodge those mental training hurdles
…
Santa is bringing you a “go faster” gift later this month
Cheers,
Robyn
