AND THATS A WRAP ๐ŸŽ‰

Thanks to everyone who came out and raced, volunteered or supported over the three events for the duathlon series! We hope you loved it as much as we did!

Massive shout out to Claire Graham and her team for organising the three events and Tremains Real Estate for sponsoring and keeping us fed!

That also wraps up our events for the season! The committee are busy recharging to bring you another jam packed season starting in October with the return of Open Water Swims ๐Ÿ’™.

RACE DAY TOMORROW

Final race of the series is tomorrow and we can't wait๐ŸŽ‰.

๐Ÿ“†If you missed online entries - dont worry - you can enter on the day. There is a $5 late fee but head over to the registration tent from 8 AM and the crew will get you entered.

โฐ First race kicks off at 9AM and we aim to wrap up the day around 11 / 11:30PM with prize giving. Make sure you stick around for this

๐Ÿ‘ซVolunteer briefing is 8:15AM, meet at the registration tent. Volunteers help run the day so if you are able to give us a hand on the day, talk to the crew at the registration tent and they can get you set up with a cool high vis and coffee voucher. Many hands make light work as they say!

๐ŸŒค Weather forecast is looking good! But as always, bring your layers, it does tend to get a bit chilly up there.

Finally remember to have fun, give your mates a high five and enjoy the day! It's just about getting out there and getting it done. See you soon ๐Ÿ’™
