If you weren't at
our Off Road Duathlon on Sunday you missed a great event at a pretty
spectacular location. Running along the coast as the sun rose over the
horizon was a very special moment and the mtb course was given the thumbs
up.
A huge thank you to Tony
Cox and Malcolm
Neville for their time and effort getting this new event up
and running and their course setting efforts. The feed back was all
positive and the collective call was to "bring it on" again ...
soon!
Thanks also to those who helped out including: Luke Fronsko
who did RD duties; Graeme
Parsons and Felicity
Molan for their assistance at check in; Vicki Woodrow
who covered our post race refreshments; Kevin Wells who guarded the track
to ensure safety of riders and also to those who jumped in to help with our
water stop and with packing up. We would be lost without your
willingness to help out, thanks again.
Looking for new experiences? Watch
this space for details of the new options available at our Long Course event
scheduled for 27 August 2017. As well as the traditional 2km swim,
60km bike, 16km run, we are including lots of different formats (many for
the first time in the Territory) and there will be something for everyone
including non members! Mark your calendars.
