NOOSA TRIATHLON 2012
The 30th annual Noosa Triathlon was as expected a huge weekend of racing and partying. Along with our friends from Tri Alliance Melbourne we had a huge contingent competing with as always a large group of first time Noosa athletes.
We had some great results so it was very pleasing to see the benefits of the hard work at training pay off. The results are at http://dev.tri-alliance.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/2012-11-04-Noosa-Tri.pdf
Entries to the 2013 Noosa Tri opened today with priority entry to Triathlon Queensland members. As we mentioned at the after party on Sunday night the Noosa triathlon will be the one event every year that Tri Alliance get together and enjoy each other’s company.
If Noosa was a major focus then it’s time for a break of 2-3 weeks before looking at 2013. If not then we still have the QTS races at Robina and Raby Bay to finish the year off.
TRAINING PHOTO OF THE MONTH
The winner of the training photo of the month is Kieran Heinze for his photo of Chris Bierton and Tom Hogbin at a transitions session at Redcliffe the week before Worlds. He will receive a $50 voucher from Shoes Feet Gear at Paddington.
This month’s competition is the best before and after photo. That can be anything from body shape to hair styles so send in to yas@dev.tri-alliance.com.au if you have something.
