Share Your Thoughts

You should have received an email from us late last week, asking for you to take part in a quick survey. The feedback you give will provide us with valuable information in continuing to refine and grow the services and training we offer to best support you on your triathlon journey.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could spend just 5 mins completing the survey on the link below. Thanks to those who have already done so. We love hearing what you think!

Congrats to All Our Runners

By all accounts, it looks as though Melbourne came through with the goods and provided a perfect morning for running.  Congratulations to all those who took part, challenged themselves and conquered new distances.  And awesome to hear of all the supporters out on course helping the runners push through.

Race Days Are Getting Closer

It's easy to feel like you've got all the time in the world to prepare for your upcoming race. I mean, when you sign up, the event itself seems like a distant speck on the horizon. But let's get real for a moment and break it down. Because until you see the situation in black and white, you might not fully grasp that the clock is ticking faster than you think!

It's Time To Sign

We have had a great partnership with Elwood Life Saving Club for many many years and we truly believe in supporting the amazing work they do. That's why we're encouraging all our members to get behind the club and sign up as a member for the 2023/24 season. Not only will this support our community, and get you access to hot showers on training days, but it will also provide you with the opportunity to be eligible for a foreshore parking pass (will save you loads in parking fees...or fines when you get done for forgetting!).

Associate Membership fees (non-patrolling) for the 2023/24 season are $100. ELSC are also offering a number of training opportunities for their members. So, make sure you get on board and support the local community.

You will need to ensure that you have a current Working with Children Check, which has Elwood LSC and Life Saving Victoria listed as organisations. They will not be able to process your renewals without this.

Once you have your ELSC membership sorted, you can then apply to the City of Port Phillip for a Foreshore Club parking permit. Both are simple processes – juts follow the links below (in order) and get yourself sorted for the season ahead!

Time to Enter?

One of the amazing benefits of your Tri-Alliance Annual Membership is your gift of 20% off your race entries!!!! That's a huge saving and we want all of you to use it.

So, here's the deal...

You will only be able to take advantage of this offer when:

a) you enter under TRI-ALLIANCE

and

b) you do it AT THE TIME of registration (it cannot be applied retrospectively).

When you are entering, select "TRI-ALLIANCE" as your club and hit "JOIN". It will prompt you for a password, which you can get by choosing "Click here to request it". That triggers a request to us for approval. Once done, you'll receive an email with the code and voila!

If the above scenario does not happen you won't be able to get your discount and you won't be linked to us. So ensure it has my name (Michelle Allan) attached to the club request and you cannot go wrong!
