CONGRATULATIONS to all who raced Busso across both the full and half distances. We are SO PROUD of you all and hope you are just as proud of your efforts, both in the lead up with all the hard work you put in but also on the day, executing your races with smiles and high fives the whole way! A shout out also goes to all the supporters who lined the course on race day and kept everyone at home updated! The rest of us in Melbourne were cheering pretty hard, whilst also being very jealous of the blue sky and sunshine as the rain fell horizontally on the first day of “summer”! Congratulations to our first timers Sebastian, Raf, Raph, and Liza - you are an Ironman! Kudos to Eddy for the fastest swim of the TA athletes in 1:00:13, beating his time from last year; to Tilders on the fastest bike in 5:15:19; and Sebastian for the fastest run at 4:02:15! Congratulations to our first timers for the 70.3 in Jen and Janine, and Monty doing the swim/bike combo in a team with Andy. And to Sheridan for securing a spot to the 70.3 World Championships in Taupo, NZ, in 2020! What a day! We hope you are all enjoying some well-deserved rest and celebration and we look forward to welcoming you back home and hearing your race stories over the coming weeks! Check out Michelle Grocock's race report from the weekend in the link below.


We are gearing up for Race #2 of the 2XU Triathlon Series in Sandringham this weekend, the last race of the series for 2019! Despite the first day of summer feeling more like the depths of winter, the weather is looking good for Sunday and we have yet another great Try The Tri crew getting set for their first ever triathlon. We look forward to another awesome race weekend with plenty of racers and supporters out there. For those of you racing this weekend, if it’s your first time or it’s been a while, don’t forget to check the TA checklist to make sure you don’t forget anything. As always, we need helpers for the future of our sport...the kids race! If you are yet to see these kids race, it’s something you don’t want to miss - they are some of the most resilient and bravest athletes you’ll see out on race day! 


As we hurtle towards the end of the year, the final call for ambassador nominations is here (before we vote!), it's also time to get your TA Christmas Party ticket, your hell week jersey and put those hell week dates in your diary!

"Not only do I feel racier and faster; Not only am I easy to spot and attract #allofthecheers, but I had zero chaffing and no wet nappy feeling in my new trisuit…ah-mazing!"
If you haven’t already jumped on board the TA trisuit bandwagon, get on it!! You’re just in time for the start of the season and we guarantee you will get extra cheers.  If you're not in team kit, don’t blame us if you only got cheers once you're 200m down the road and we finally realised we know who you are (we try our best, I promise!)…no, don’t be like all the others, be more like Dan!


There are still plenty of suits in stock right now, with the new 2020 suits landing on THURSDAY. So come on!

Helpers Needed

The future stars of our crazy sport will be kicking off proceedings on Sunday morning with the Tri Kids race.  We're looking for some friendly faces to come and give these little ones a hand.  It's super easy, they just need help with:
* lining up in their AGs
* walking to the start line
* being pointed in the right direction
* putting on tops, shorts, shoes (after the swim)
* racking and moving bikes
* encouragement to keep going
* smiles for miles and high 5s all round!

Meet at the TA Tent at 6:20am for briefing on the beach at 6:30am.  The more the merrier.  Let's get around these gems of the sport!

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Xmas

~ SUNDAY 15th DECEMBER ~

A key social event on our calendar!
Christmas is the festive season – and triathletes are no different than everyone else (well, maybe……) but we all still celebrate Christmas and this event is looked forward to each year. It’s a time to get together, (outside of lycra), relax, have fun and be merry!

Lawn bowls, BBQ nibbles and festive drinks (LFBs for many of us) at St Kilda bowling club from 3pm onwards.

Due to the popular success of Secret Santa, we are again expanding it to include the lads.  So if you would like to partake in a bit of fun and nonsense, hit the link below.

Are You Up For The Challenge?

For those new to the concept, Hell Week – as the name suggests, is a week-long period of completing a run, ride and swim every day. In a nutshell, you’ll be competing a triathlon every day for one week, which replaces normal timetable sessions in late December at MSAC, Elwood and Albert Park.

It is simple:
6am – Group Ride from Elwood Lifesaving Club every day (Apart from Christmas Day)
6pm – Group open water swim from Elwood Lifesaving Club (if you didn’t swim in the AM) also apart from Christmas Day

The aim of Hell Week is to provide athletes with a serious spike in their training, running from December 21-29, with the exception of Christmas Day (Or go ahead and do Christmas day if you’re feeling exceptionally hell-ish!).
