This Sunday is our first opportunity to run a local Club event in a while with Race 1 of our annual winter Duathlon Series @7.30am at McInherney Park.
Yes there will be some changes to how the event is run, however we're all happy to be back racing and hope that you'll join us and behave responsibly. There'll be a specific covid-19 sign-in for all competitors and spectators who attend. And naturally, people should not attend if they feel unwell or in the last 14 days have been to Victoria or the parts of Sydney that have been identified as covid hot-spots.
On the day, hand sanitisers will be available, gloves will also be available for volunteers, there will be minimum bike-rack spacing, and sadly no post-event refreshments or get-together. However we can all still go back to SeaSalt afterwards (complying with their own covid-19 seating rules) so we can brag about how great we were to drag our winter-bodies around the old McInherney course.
The race format will feature a 2.5km run, an 18km ride, and 2.5km run to finish, with a short course option of 1.5km run, 9km ride, and 1.5km run. We also offer our fun social grade option where you can essentially make up your own distances!
We also offer an opportunity for the kids to race on our course, with a 500m run, 6km bike & 1.5km run. Their race will start 15 minutes before the seniors. Just note that kids must be 10yrs old to race.
Race rego is from 6.45am-7.15am with the juniors getting underway straight after. Seniors will be starting at 7.30am.
Current members keen to compete are required to re-new their annual membership at the new rate of $30 for the season ($15 for juniors!). However, any of your training mates & non-members can also race at a $10 entry fee which can be paid on the morning of the race.
