KURNELL RACE 4 [ 28th Feb 2010 ]
Well the last race for Kurnell before the next Series but a very important one not only a race for qualifying for the Australian team , but a race determining the Series winner in each age group as well as a major club race . Once again we had a large turnout from the club.
As in previous races some great results were achieved both as PB's and finishers in the top three.
It was good day for racing although some of the swim times were bit slow (conditions). The barbeque was a success again even to the point of selling out early. To all the helpers not only at Kurnell, but also at the Richie Walker especially it was fantastic.

To all the people going to Club Champs keep up the hard training as this is the most improtant for the club - Well done to all who participated
Fellow Club Member Luke Witcher is racing for a purpose at Ironman this year, let's rally behind him and donate to this worthy cause
Hi Family, Friends, Work Colleagues, Fellow Triathlon Junkies etc.,
On March 28 I'll be taking part in the Australian Ironman Triathlon at Port Macquarie and will be raising money for Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect). I'm aiming high and trying to raise $20,000 which will make a real difference to children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families.
I'm feeling a bit apprehensive about taking part in this gruelling 226k event but am training hard and I know all the work will be worth it. Now that Christmas is over, I've shed some kilos and need to lose a few more to handle the 4k swim, 180k ride and 42k marathon run. Think it sounds hard? Well unfortunately it pales into insignificance compared to living with ASD, especially for those suffering from this debilitating condition and their primary carers.
I've chosen to raise money for Aspect because as you might or might not know, I have a son (Josh) who has a moderate to severe form of ASD. Consequently, it's a cause very close to my heart and it would mean a lot to me and to the people we will be helping if you are able to support me.
Aspect is working to overcome the isolation of autism. They provide diagnosis, early intervention, specialised education, adult programs and family advice and support to over 6,000 people a year. I am hoping to raise funds specifically for the Southeast School where significant capital is required for various equipment and ASD specific environments such as sensory rooms and playgrounds.
To sponsor me please visit:
http://www.gofundraise.com.au/IronManChallenge
All donations over $2 are tax deductible.
Yours in training,
Regards Luke

Good luck to everyone racing at Huskisson on the weekend.
From the President.................[ 10th Feb 2010 ]
I honestly can't remember the last time a Kurnell Race was Cancelled ! but while driving out there to unpack the Bbq that never happened, it was obvious that sections of the road were flooded and would have made it too dangerous to race. Luckily there's no shortage of races, and with Huskisson approaching fast I look forward to seeing you all out and about racing and cheering on our fellow Members in every event.
The week after Husky we have the Richie Walker and the next Kurnell Race on the same weekend, so as you can imagine we'll need a lot of help setting up, marshalling, and packing up the Richie Walker into the Ute and moving it to Kurnell all on the one day, so it will be a "all hands on deck"........................
Club Champs seem to be a fair way off, but now is the time to enter the race and sort your accommodation. This is the race where we get to show how well we are performing as a Club - and to me there is a great vibe at the moment and performing well at the Club Champs is the best way to show that. The race is at One Mile Beach with the Presentation held at the Soldiers Point Bowling Club, and a dedicated Bus service is provided to transport you to and from the venue if required, and the Club will also provide Pizza and refreshments prior to the Presentation / Party. A part of being able to compete at the Club Champs is that you must be a current financial Member of TriNSW - a position that the Club fully endorses, we need to support our own Association.
Finally an observation from myself, with having the World Champs to open the Season this year it seems we have a high level of fitness with new members and long term members racing extremely well, recording PB's and placing well in all events, so well done to Tim (APT) Pete and Mick (HPT) and all our self coached athletes, give yourselves a pat on the back and keep working hard and striving for the best you can be, a very proud President, Gaz
Bike Pack
On the last Sunday of this Month , the 31st of January 2010 -
The "B" Pack will head to Sublime Point and return with Bill Lloyd leading the way. This ride will cover approximately 80kms, and if you only wish to only do the normal loop you can get off at Waterfall and hook up with the "C" Pack for coffee at Fixx Cafe Sutherland, then head to Kurnell for a leisurely ride.
KURNELL RACE 2 RESULTS 17th Jan 2010
On a beautiful day at Kurnell ideal conditions for a Triathlon .
Huge numbers competing for Cronulla Tri Club with some outstanding results. Alot of new Members doing their first Triathlon , some previous members returning and achieving great results . But alas a number of our top triathletes were disappointed to be disqualified when in great position to attain top results, a reminder to all to listen carefully to the Race briefing ! Some excellent PB's recorded as well, notably John Grundy and Geoff Bramann who both shaved off 8 minutes. Fantastic barbeque with incredible number of helpers and also a big thankyou to those that set up tents & barbeque. Also all the supporters who cheer us on, it certainly helps us during the race THANKS.

Club Aquathlon - Friday 8th Jan 2010 - Gunnamatta Park - Results
Kurnell BBQ's
The Tri Club has for many year's has run the Bbq's at the Kurnell Races with much success, helping the Club maintain it's high profile in the Triathlon community, mainly due to the hard work of one man - the legend , Col Hood ! Now this year we don't want to wear Col out , but are going to raise the bar again by purchasing a new Bbq , Bay Marie's, Eskies and cooking equipment - but want to also make the Bbq's fun !
Below are the 3 Dates for the Kurnell Bbq's and we're looking for someone at each one to organise a Crew of 3-4 people [can be mates, mum's, dad's, relo's - whoever] to serve the food - and you can also have a "theme" for your crew...........
To that end the Club will give anyone who organises the Bbq crew $100 to spend at your choice of Club Sponsor - either Southside Runner's, Endeavour Cycles or Chain Reaction.
Race 2 - 17th of January 2010
Race 3 - 7th of February 2010
Race 4 - 28th of February 2010
To lock-in the Date of your choice, call Gaz on 0403 177 714

Club Racing

The swim is multi loop held inside the Gunnamatta Baths, and the run is also multi loops of the Park following the Richie Walker course ( good practice for the big one ) We have distances to suit all level of athlete from novice / junior or you can put a Team together.

MOSS VALE RIDE – Sunday December 27th
Another one of the Tri Clubs premier events ! The Moss Vale ride is a great day out for the whole family whether you’re a participant or just there as part of the support crew. Either way we all start at Sutherland, have breakfast at Wollongong and end up at Moss Vale.
You don't have to ride all the way, in fact you can start and finish wherever you wish.
Here are some of the options:
Option 1........Start with the "A" Pack ride all the way and contest for the "King Of The Mountain"
The rules for this pack will be set out by the Bike Captain before rolling out.
Option 2.......Start slightly earlier with the "B" Pack riding at a slower pace all the way to Robertson.
Option 3.......Start at Wollongong after breakfast and ride the 58kms to Moss Vale.
Option 4.......Start at the base of the Mountain (Macquarie Pass) and ride the 20kms to Moss Vale.
The Mountain itself is steepest at the bottom and gets easier the further you climb, and you don't have to be Cadel Evans to ride it.
We meet at Sutherland Pool Car Park, 1st pack leaves 6:15am, 2nd pack 6:30am finishing approx. 12pm at Moss Vale.
Take plenty of food and drinks for the ride, also money and a change of clothes for the Pub.
There's usually plenty of transport available for cartage of gear, bikes and weary bodies, but it is best to try and organise this in advance. There is also a Train Station, but you will need to check the Timetable.
See you there!

Its been another busy few weeks with lots happening.
The Davo sisters flew the flag for Cronulla at the Junior series race at Speers Point. In torrential rain Emma 2nd, Samantha 1st and Melissa 4th all managed to stay upright on the bike in very difficult conditions and continued the good early season form they have been showing. Well done GIRLS !!!!
We had eleven juniors make the trip to Forster last weekend for the Multisport festival. Jack and Tom got the weekend off to a great start when they both finished on the podium in the 1k Ocean swim. Saturday morning started with the Sprint race and we had Emma, Peter Pan, Hayden and Blake competing in the Under 20 category. They all aquitted themselves well and were happy with their races. Next we had Melissa,Samantha,Olivia and Jarred contesting the mini-man events. These are non-competitive events and all four of our junior stars took the opportunity to practise their race skills. Watching these kids in transitons puts many of the seniors to shame they way they mount and dismount their bikes so skillfully. Jack and Tom took to the water in the enticer event. Jack had a minor fall in the bike leg as he pushed really hard to stay with the lead pack but he bounced back well to finish right on the heels of the winners. Tom also had a good race and when he is riding he looks like he is part of the bike.
After a short break it was time for the Pro-Tour event and we were represented by Sam Douglas. This was an enduro format where the athletes did a 300m swim/8k bike/2k run/300m swim/8k bike/2k run. This is fantastic to watch as they race on the limit the whole way. Sam had a fantastic race finishing in seventh place overall and not very far behind some of the best under 23 triathletes in the state. Great effort Sam.
Monday afternoon bikes is proving popular with the juniors and we are getting good attendance levels each week. We meet at 4.30pm at Sutherland Bike track for 1.5 hours and spend time practising group riding,racing and our handling and transition skills. Wednesday nights run/swim is also going well and this is at the Club house at Gunnamatta Park at 6.30pm and goes for between 45 minutes and an hour.Bring run and swim gear for this session.
This Saturday (November 21st) is the second club race for the year and if the first one is anything to go by there will be plenty of athletes turning up to race. There are four different distances to race depending on your age. Dave and Bronie will be happy to help you work out which one to do.
