NOOSA ~ TICKED

Noosa was run, won and all done this weekend, in impeccable style. If you asked the athletes to describe their day, we bet you'll just be hearing one word...H O T !!! Conditions were tough for all those who took to the course, and although it was always going to be warm for us Melbournians, it was much more than that! Huge congrats to all those who gave it their all out there, whether it was their first time or their 10th time (yay HENDO - you made it to the Legend's Club), we saw lots of grit, determination and smiles all day long. And great prep for those leading into Busso...Special shout out to the energizer-bunny Pammy,who not only smashed out her Olympic distance race in the heat of the day (with one of the latest wave starts) but then went on to complete an extra 20km after crossing the finish line! Commitment to the very end! Full race results in the Weekend Wrap Up.
Thank you to those coaches back in Melbs who kept the squad going and our group of very helpful (and friendly-faced) volunteers who supported our newer athletes. You guys are awesome and I can't tell you how much the Try the Tri group appreciate your help!
So as we close the chapter on Noosa, we look forward to another race weekend up in Shepparton. We have loads of athletes making the trip up to have a go at the 70.3 distance and several taking on the sprint race too. And if that wasn't enough, there's only 2.5 weeks until the opening round of the 2XU series! It's all certainly starting to heat up!
Don't forget to get your race suit sorted, your new cycling kit organised and your Garmin ordered...it's time to race :)
Without further adieu...it's time to 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.

Confirmed Event Dates for 2018/19 are:

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. Coaches are 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.

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.

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.
