WORD FROM THE COACHES
Another mixed bag of weather for the weekend meant our runners who braved the Sandy Point run on Sunday were blown and battered by wind and rain. That said it was a great hit out for those who took part and all said the return home along beach road was amazing being carried by the wind.
Good work to those who took it on with some great performances showing what hard work over winter can do and shows promise for the season ahead. We had Coach Scott, Slaine, Rachel, Janna and Simon all running the 10k whilst Brett (Kona training run!), Pam, Pete and Des took on the Half Marathon.
Next on the race calendar is the second Duathlon at Richmond this coming Sunday. The MSAC and Fairfield runs will head to in that direction to give on course support.
PROGRAMS
Athlete programs have now been updated for September with a 5 week block being visible in your membership portal. Do log in and check out what is in store and ask your coach if you have any questions on it. We have 2 more weeks in the hills for those in Melbourne before transitioning into our race prep and speed block. Sessions will begin to become even more racy and even start to include short runs of the bike. Those attending Queenscliff will begin their bricks on the camp with some specific sessions tailored for them.
NOOSA (SOLD OUT!) OR MOOLOOLABAH RACE ENTRY
We have an athlete entry to the sold out Noosa Triathlon this year or the Mooloolabah Standard (Olympic) Distance in 2018. This is a great opportunity if you missed out on Noosa or are on the wait list. It will be sold under face value to the first in best dressed.

YOUR PROFILE DATA
Since the launch of the new site most athletes have updated and checked their details are correct and accurate but we do ask that you also ensure your security settings are such that your information is private to yourself (or your friends if you so wish). We have noticed that some athletes details have been set to 'everyone' which in the interests of your security is not recommended. Log in to your athlete profile select the profile section and hit edit - you will now have options under each piece of information to change its properties. There are also further security options under the settings section which can be found by selecting the + button at the end of the top row of icons.

There will be options depending on your goals and current level of training for the ride on Saturday. Elwood for a flatter ride, Wantirna for hills and North Road to the Dandenongs for our advanced guys. Check below for more details and times. . |
