What a weekend! It had it all, and you gave it your all. Super impressed with the efforts that were on display in St Kilda yesterday. At the end of the day, you have to be satisfied that when you look yourself in the mirror, you can honestly say you did your best. That’s what counts!
We need to thank everyone who stayed and helped/supported the team over the weekend. Saturday was hectic (even for us) with Tips and Tricks at the earlier time of 10:30am. But we confidently got through the morning with Les steering the ship and all of us following his directions. Many hands made things happen over the weekend, (including tent put up, water collection, whomping, carrying, cleaning, Kid’s Tri volunteering, TTT support, coffee runs, BBQ duties, Oscar entertaining, trailer packing, etc) so if this was you – THANK YOU! Truly a team effort!
Be sure to read all the results from Race 3 of the 2XU series below. We know the depth of the field was strong this weekend, with the race also doubling as the Age Group Australian Sprint Championship. There were many interstaters who had made the trip to St Kilda to compete. So, keep that in mind when you are reflecting on your results.
Speaking of results, Aurelie headed down to tackle Two Bays Trail run. She completed the 28kms from Dromana to Cape Schank in a time of 3:10:10. Well done, Missy. You keep going from strength to strength!
No doubt you would have seen our email last Friday, calling for Ambassador votes. In case you missed it, we’ve included the link below and a reminder that voting will be open until 5pm this Friday. We want to thank all those who nominated and provided such glowing references of our athletes. We also want to thank those who accepted the nomination to be included in voting. And we completely understand those who were unable to accept this year. We know that we have placed the decision making in good hands and are looking forward to announcing the Ambassadors next week.
And finally, another reason to get excited. Tri-Alliance is officially partnering up with PILLAR to connect our athletes with the very best in professional recovery products. To kick things off, we have an exclusive athlete webinar for all of you with PILLAR'S performance dietician, Pip Taylor. A former professional triathlete and acclaimed author, Pip combines her clinical expertise with her lived experience as an elite athlete. She will be with us next Wednesday night, for a full hour of learning, so get on board to hear how you can make the most of optimal recovery. As a bonus for everyone who attends, a sample pack for you to take home and try!!!! Going forward, all our Annual members will benefit from an exclusive discount of 20% off all PILLAR products (#surroundyourselfwiththerightpeople).
I am looking forward to another week of coaching duties, so no doubt I will be seeing you soon! As always, reach out to us if you need anything (or if I’ve accidentally missed any results!).
