Happy New Year All!

I hope everyone had an enjoyable festive season, filled with treats and good times, plus maybe a little swimming, biking and running!

It seems a while ago now, but congratulations to everyone from the club who participated in Ironman WA and Ironman WA 70.3. We had a strong contingent down there racing and spectating. As one of the racers, I can't emphasise enough how much the support from everyone was greatly appreciated.

Race reports are already up from Nat and Alex W, with more to come from Alex M and maybe even myself in the coming days... https://www.revolutionise.com.au/uwatriclub/race-reports/

Our training hiatus is almost over, with both running and swimming kick off again on Monday 7th January. Get yourself registered and get along to our club sessions. More info here: https://www.revolutionise.com.au/uwatriclub/classes/

Club 'camp' will be a little different this year, as we'll be staying in Perth for the Australia Day weekend. Things will start at the Australia Day Triathlon @ Point Walter, where we hope to have a strong contingent racing. In the following days, Adrian has been busy teeing up a variety of activities including the club ride, yoga, bike maintenance and a visit to Lake Leschenaultia! Get registered and come along, you can find all the details and registration here.

Finally, as you will have seen on Facebook, the club is looking to help a couple of members along on the path to becoming a certified Triathlon Australia Foundation Coach. Please see the post for more info, and reach out to the committee for more information, or to put in an application. Be quick, we need your applications in by Saturday!

Registration Changes
