Welcome to Race Week, Squaddies!
It's time to lace up those racing shoes, tighten those helmet straps, and get ready to dive headfirst into some epic race action! This week marks the culmination of months of hard work, dedication, and sweat as we gear up for not one, but two massive events that will have the entire squad buzzing with excitement.
First off, we've got the final race of the 2XU series for 2023/24 happening in none other than the vibrant heart of St Kilda. With over 90 of our own athletes registered to compete, this is not just a race; it's a monumental showcase of our squad's strength, determination, and unwavering spirit. Let's paint St Kilda yellow and blue as we line up to tackle the course, support each other, and leave it all out there. And hey, don't forget to stick around post-race for a squad photo! We are looking to get a team shot of as many of us as possible. Let's capture this moment together, decked out in our TA gear, showcasing the power of unity and camaraderie.
But wait, there's more! As if one race wasn't enough, we've got a dedicated crew of Long Course warriors gearing up to conquer Ironman 70.3 Geelong on the very same day. Talk about a double dose of adrenaline! To all our Long Course athletes, you've put in the blood, sweat, and tears to get to this point, and now it's time to shine. Embrace the challenge, embrace the journey, and remember, how far you've come. We hope you have the race you deserve and want nothing but the best outcome for you all. Go get 'em!
Now, let's address the elephant on the track – the F1 Grand Prix taking over Albert Park precinct. With our usual training grounds temporarily out of bounds, we've had to shake things up a bit. But fear not! We've adapted and overcome, moving our sessions to new locations and ensuring that nothing stands in the way of our race day preparations. Be sure to double-check the updated timetable for session details and locations, and let's make the most of this minor detour on our road to greatness.
Quick heads up – the early bird pricing for our exclusive Triathlon Training Camp in Thanyapura, Thailand, ends this week! If you've been on the fence about joining us for this epic 10-day adventure, now's the time to seize the opportunity and lock in those savings. Trust me, you won't want to miss out on this chance to take your triathlon game to new heights while basking in the tropical paradise of Thailand.
As we dive headfirst into Race Week, let's remember the words of the legendary Muhammad Ali: "Don't count the days, make the days count." Every moment, every stride, every action brings us closer to our goals. Let's harness that fire within, push our limits, and finish off this season with a resounding BANG!
See you at the start line, TA! |
