We’ll be cheering loudly for our club super stars and we’re so proud that Michael is giving this a crack!

Chair of Brain Cancer Australia and retired neurosurgeon Professor Michael Besser will be celebrating his 80th birthday by competing in the Ironman 70.3 event this Sunday in Mooloolaba.

He hopes to raise $30,000 for brain cancer research, which he says "desperately needs" more research to understand.

Mr Besser said he is racing in memory of friend, colleague and melanoma research Professor Richard Scolyer who died from brain cancer in June and has incited big change.

"I think Richard Scolyer may be the apex of this change," he said.

Mr Besser said donations to Brain Cancer Australia are his greatest birthday wish.

"It's the only reason I'm doing it really, and it's better than a party," he said.

This will be Mr Besser's 10th full length Ironman, but his first in over a decade.

He'll be among 2000 other athletes taking on the 1.9km swim, 90km bike ride and 31.1km run at the sold out event this weekend.

The day has come… our final Friday OWS Squad! 🌊🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️
To celebrate just how much fun Friday mornings have been, Noosa Tri Club is shouting you coffee. ☕️
You know the drill:
🌊 Meet at Main Beach, in front of Bistro C
🏊 Ready to swim at 6am
☕️ Give Sue your coffee order when you sign in
☀️ Coffee and chats from 7:15am in front of the Surf Club
While you’re out swimming, Sue, Jane and Emma will quietly work their magic and have the coffees ready for your return.
A huge thank you to coaches Nick and Chris for quickly pivoting to OWS while the 50m pool has been closed. What started as a change of plans has very quickly become one of our favourite sessions of the week — and all that open-water practice will undoubtedly make a big difference when summer racing rolls around.
Come for the swim. Stay for the coffee. ☕️☀️
One last Friday OWS — see you on the beach!

🌺 ROAD TO KONA — MEET WENDY HOLT! 🌺
From a St Kilda sprint tri in 1995 to the Ironman World Championships in Kona this October — Wendy’s tri journey has had a few twists, turns… and even a 10-year break from the pool! 😳
Wendy’s first tri happened almost by accident when some netball teammates entered a team event. She loved it so much she was back the very next weekend racing solo.
A few years later, a friend took her to watch Ironman Australia and confidently told her:
“You’ll see this and want to do it.”
Wendy laughed. Absolutely no chance. 😂
She went home, wrote herself a five-year plan to get to an Ironman start line… and only needed two.
🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️ First Ironman: 2000.
After years of long-course racing, Wendy returned to netball in 2007 and didn’t set foot in a pool for 10 years.
Then some friends convinced her to have another crack at Ironman WA. It went rather well — although Wendy admits the cancelled swim may have helped 😂 — and she qualified for Kona for the first time.
Since then, triathlon has become as much about the people and adventures as the racing, with Wendy and Michael travelling and racing around Australia and NZ.
And this October, Wendy is heading back to the Big Island to take on the Ironman World Championships! 🌺🔥
Her favourite part of being in Noosa Tri Club?
💙 “Meeting others with a passion for the sport and sharing our training journeys.”
We couldn’t agree more.
Go well, Wendy — the NTC crew will be cheering you all the way to Ali’i Drive! 🌺💙🖤💛♥️
