QLD WEEKLY TRANSITIONS 20/9/12
TRI ALLIANCE QUEENSLAND LAUNCH
Thanks to everyone that came to our launch last Sunday at the Melbourne Hotel. It was a great success and a wonderful way to officially launch Tri Alliance Qld for the coming season.
The feedback from all the sponsors was very positive and they’re all looking forward to the future.
Our inaugural Tri Alliance Ambassadors were also announced. The winners were Darrell Giles and Claire Schneider and they will receive some great support this season from Mizuno, Shoes Feet Gear and Rocket Science.
Photos from the evening thanks to Brooke Shaw will be posted on the facebook page in the coming days.
TRIATHLON QUEENSLAND CLUB CHAMPS – MORETON BAY TRIATHLON
Race 2 of the club champs series is this Sunday at Pelican Park, Redcliffe. On line entries have closed however you can still enter manually until midday Friday.
We’ll be having a bbq again after the race for members and their families to enjoy and Mizuno have provided a $200 pair of shoes to give away as a random draw to any Tri Alliance member that competes.
Our great sponsors Brett from Elite Sports Massage and Paul Fien and Peter Stanton from UQ Sports & Rehab will be there to support those racing on the day through massage and physio.

GOOD LUCK
Our new Tri Alliance Qld ambassador Darrell Giles is off to France this week to compete in the World Duathlon Championships. This is Darrell’s first national age group team and comes on the back of a great season so far.
He has set pb’s in 10km, half marathon and marathon at 50 years of age to show that age is no barrier. After France it is onto his first IM at Busso in December.
