NOOSA WEEK

It's all about Noosha darling! Fave time of the year for many as we vacate Melbs en masse, headed for sunnier skies (although wouldn't be ironic if that was all flipped this weekend!). We have over 40 athletes competing this year, putting us among the top 10 squads taking part, which is not bad for some out-of-towners! Good luck to all those involved. If you've been there before you'll know this is so much more than 'just a race'. So enjoy it all, lap it up and soak it all in!
And one more special shout out to M.A.R.I.O. who today is on his way to the USA to take part in the New York City marathon in just 5 days time. Talk about experiences!!!! Good luck Mario, we wish you a great run, a great trip and a great time in the Big Apple.
Short pause (and huge thank you!) for those left behind, who will be training through and making sure the squad functions accordingly. Please make sure you read the amended timetable below which will explain those sessions that are going ahead and those that are not. Little heads up that this Thursday, with spectacular weather, calls for Aquathons (read...no bikes necessary) and Saturday morning with be all about Duathlons.
In case you have been under a rock over the past 2 weeks, our newest partner - GARMIN - have awesome deals for us. New products have been added to the Tri Shop daily (ermmmm....the new Fenix Premium Series are to die for!!!), so check them out. In more TriShop news, our latest tri-suits have landed and are in stock. Make sure you get on to these to ensure you are repping the blue and yellow come race day. And we're now taking orders for new cycling jerseys. See details below and get your locked away.
We've kept it brief this week, so you can stay on top of all things Tri-Alliance. R>E>A>D O>N!!!

2XU TRIATHLON SERIES

Tri Club Championship

Each year, the 2XU Series runs an Individual Series Championship alongside their events. Points can be scored by finishing top 10 in the Sprint (races 1–5), and the Olympic Distance in Race 6, in Elite, Junior Elite, Age Group & Clydesdale/Athena categories. To win your category you must have competed in a minimum of three championship races.
There is also a CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP, whereby ALL athletes can earn points for our squad. One point is allocated to each squad member competing and those who finish within the top five of their category will also be awarded additional points.The best 15 competitor’s club points are summed to calculate the club’s point score for a particular race. Last year we finished a very close 3rd!!! To ensure our athletes are earning points for Tri Alliance, we need to make sure you select our Tri Club when entering any of the events below. Make sure you use "TRI-ALLIANCE" when entering.

ELLIPTIGO EXPERIENCES

Taking TA Athletes For Fun Sessions

You may have noticed a super-cool, stand up bike that has been joining our wind training sessions lately.. It’s called the ElliptiGO! Both an indoor and outdoor bike, the ElliptiGO combines the best of running, cycling and the elliptical trainer to give you a fun and effective tool for outdoor training sessions.
Stand Up cycling is a low-impact exercise that builds cardiovascular fitness, while being easy on the joints, which makes it great for everyone.

Now.. how can you experience it? We’ve partnered with the ElliptiGO Experiences team, Lexi and Monika Alston, who will be running morning Fun Training sessions exclusively for the TA family.

Calling on Vollies

Thank you to everyone who has hung around, said 'hi' or lended a helping hand to one or more of our newer athletes. We can't tell you how far this kindness goes into making our members feel welcomed, supported and part of the Tri Alliance family. And we've still got plenty of more big sessions to come, with lots of new faces. So we're calling on some volunteers to help us out over the next few weeks, particularly as the squad spreads out to Noosa and Shepparton. Coaches are also traveling for racing and supporting duties, so we need some friendly faces to assist the Elwood combo session back home. If you are free during the following times/dates and are interested in helping out, can you please shoot Bondy a message and she'll be in touch with more info.

ELWOOD LIFE SAVING CLUB

It's Time to Sign

We have had a great partnership with Elwood Life Saving Club for 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 2018/19 season. Not only will this support our community, 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!). So,

Membership fees for the 2018/19 season will remain the same. We ask that all members renew by 30 September 2018 so that you can continue to enjoy the activities provided by the Club.

We also ask that all members aged 18 and over ensure that you have a current Working with Children Check, which has Elwood LSC and Life Saving Victoria listed as organisations. We will not be able to process your renewals without this due to changes that occurred under the Child Protection legislation last year.
