Hi All,
Congrats to
all our members who competed in the Ray White NT Sprint Triathlon and the
junior events at the weekend.
We are so
lucky to have this top tri venue right on our doorstep. Having traffic
management in place for the weekend along with flashing lights on Sunday, made
for awesome races and there is no doubt this event just keeps on getting better
and better every year.
Thanks to
Korgan Hucent and the team at Ray White for their continued support of this
event, which also acts as Race #3 of our Sprint Series.
A huge
shout out to Triathlon NT’s event committee headed up by Anna Goat, the junior
development team guided by Tim Ellison, Sprint RD John Arrigo and all the
wonderful volunteers who worked their butts off over the weekend. Good job!!
We can’t
name all volunteers for fear of inadvertently overlooking someone, but you are
all very much appreciated.

OTHER NEWS:

Disappointment for Clare Labowitch on Sunday. Clare had mechanical
problems on the first lap of the bike. Better luck next time Clare!
2. No
names, but one of our competitors got a costly rules wake up on Sunday.
We recommend all our members have a read through the Race Competition Rules. If nothing
else, regularly refresh your memory regarding General Conduct rules.
3.
Steve Goat, Bryan Hopkins and John Arrigo head to Malaysia for Ironman 70.3
Putrajaya this weekend. Good luck guys.
4.
Don’t forget to lend a hand with packing up after events. Many hands make
light work and everyone gets home quicker if we all help out.
5. On
volunteering, there are a number of events coming up that require volunteers in
a number of positions (in some cases, including Race Director). For these
events to go ahead we need to have the key volunteers in place. Please
check the calendar
and if you can help out please let us know.
Cheers,
Robyn
