Tweed Enduro

Race report
Darren Ryan

The Tweed Enduro set in the town of Pottsville would have to be one of the best locations for a triathlon in our region. The water is crystal clear and the location is relatively flat.

For a few members this was our first long course/70.3/half Ironman distance in some time. A lot of extra training was done in order to prepare our bodies for what is a grueling distance to mere mortals. Although for some of our members it was a super fast race but they are unusually fit and thin and this race report is not about them. This race report is about us old broken athletes.

The swim being although being 1900m is a very easy swim as it is with the tide and the water is just magic. For myself I felt great in the water until right at the end when a blue bottle went across my face. Lucky it was at the end and it was only a short run to transition where some cold water put the pain at ease.

Hell of the West

Race report
Anthony Fletcher

After we dropped my 16yo son Jack at school on Friday morning we set out for the 355km journey to Goodndiwindi for the Hell of the West Triathlon which has been running since 1989.

I have made this journey 6 times before, raced 5 times before with a year off racing albeit spectating due to a rather silly toe injury sustained in the week before which required stitches in the webbing of my toes and ruled me out of that race 3 days before hand. I was shattered as at HOTW you get awards for 5, 10, 15 etc races in a row unbroken and I would have been at 7 in a row with this race and have got my 5 year award 2 years ago but as usual life throws random things at you sometime and you just have to deal with it and get on with it.
