E NEWS 19 MAY 2016
This is a quick E News mainly to convey a few extra details regarding our
Kerran Mudgway Memorial Club Championship taking place this Saturday
afternoon.
If you haven’t done this event before, we hope you are ready for a real
Territory triathlon experience. Lake Bennett is a must do race on our
calendar and the location and late afternoon start time ensures we will
have a very different swim, bike, run experience to that of our usual
events.
It’s our big club event of the year and will be great to see you all
there. With the Championship distance and a short option on offer
there is something for everyone. Teams are welcome over both
distances.
As it is expected to be the usual warm conditions at Lake Bennett, please
ensure you have at least 2 (two) full water bottles on your bike for the
bike leg (and don’t forget to drink).
The usual water station at start/finish area will be in place.
Please note: No outside assistance is allowed (ie your supporters are
not allowed to hand you water bottles etc on either the bike or run
course).
We look forward to seeing you all at Lake Bennett at the weekend.
Don’t forget to
allow extra travel time and to check that you have all your gear before
leaving – it’s too far to drive back if you have forgotten your cycle shoes
or some other vital piece of equipment (don’t laugh, it has happened more
than once)!
