E NEWS 21 JUNE 17
Our calendars are
all crazy busy at this time of year and Darwin Triathlon Club's is no
exception.
This coming weekend we kick off our new Off Road Duathlon event at Lee
Point.
Perfect for dry season (read no need to get wet), it's also a great
cross training opportunity for those in training for Tour de Timor,
Katherine Ultra etc. Big thank you to Tony Cox and Malcolm Neville
for their input for this one.
This is the last event on our 2016 | 2017 Calendar so do come along.
Don't want to run (or just want to run)? Form a team or you can enter
as an individual and we can team you up on the day or give you a virtual
time.
