Hi All,

This is a friendly reminder about our Tips and Tricks Clinic for Race #4 of the 2XU Triathlon Series! If you’ve already read the initial email, feel free to skip this – the details remain the same.

For those who missed it or recently registered, we’re well into the season now, and this race is set to be a big one. Whether you're fine-tuning your race skills or taking on the Olympic Distance for the first time, we’re here to help you feel prepared and confident.

This weekend brings warm conditions - perfect for racing! But Race #4 also comes with some extra significance.  It will host the 2026 AusTriathlon Australian Age Group Team National Selection Race (Standard Distance Triathlon) for Pontevedra, Spain

With high stakes and strong competition, now’s the time to sharpen your race-day plan!

• Yourself and a bottle of fluids to stay hydrated.
• No equipment or physical activity is required.
• Bring lots of questions—we love interaction!

We’ll give you a comprehensive rundown of everything you need to know to make your race day as smooth and streamlined as possible. Topics include:

• Night-before preparation: What to eat for dinner, when to wake up, and how to organise your gear.
• Race-day logistics: When to arrive, where to park, and tips for navigating the venue.

We’ll also cover Sandringham-specific challenges, such as:

• Navigating the steep incline from swim exit (sea level) to bike mount (road level). We’ll walk you through this so there are no surprises!
• Race tactics for the Olympic Distance, including pacing, nutrition, and transition efficiency.
• Key rules and considerations for those aiming for Worlds Qualification.

Finally, we’ll wrap up with a course walk-through so you can see exactly where to go and have everything fresh in your mind for race morning.
