Hi All,
We have a
triathlon (our first in a while) coming up on Sunday, a very doable 300m swim,
13km bike, 3km run.
Always
enjoyable, this distance is a favourite and judging by our entry numbers we
will be seeing many of you down at Lake Alexander.
If you are
new to Darwin Triathlon Club – welcome! We look forward to supporting you
in your first event. Do have a peep at the attached basic rules of
triathlon so that there are no surprises on race day.
As part of
your online registration we have been asking you to add your timing chip
number. If this is your first event with us, you collect & sign for
your chip (free) at registration.
We ask that
all participants attend the rego desk to be checked in on Sunday morning.
