HANDICAP DUATHLON :: 8th June 2008
What a great arvo of racing we had to kick off our Junior Duathlon's !
The rain stayed away and we were able to welcome 2 new athletes, Matthew and Lauren Parsons and witness some very close races.
Race 1 - It was Matthew Parsons who took the Podium on debut, and will find himself being heavily scrutinised by the Handicapper ! he was followed home by Olivia Luddington and her brother Tom.
Race 2 - Wow, this one had the crowd on their feet and cheering as Hayden Clifford led out Laura Owens and new girl Lauren Parsons onto the final 1km run, but the places never changed as Hayden gritted his teeth and held on to win and take the cash.
Congratulations go to the girl's for bettering their previous best - Laura [3:14!], Hannah [19secs]
and Olivia [21secs] well done !

What a great weekend for Cronulla Tri Club Athletes ! On the Saturday (19th Jan) the weather was wet and cool, but the racing was "red hot".
The Australian Aquathlon Titles were a great start to the weekend of racing with the Club taking 17 podium's, including Michael Murphy's magnificent start to finish victory to take home the Men's Open Australian Aquathlon Title with Jenni Erskine taking home the Women's Open Australian Aquathlon Title.
Other Members that became National Title holders in their age group were Paul O'Brien, Jarrad Adams, Karen Lethlean-Turner, Ellen Clifford and Janice Iredale.
But the highlight of the weekend was Dave Allen's magnificent 3rd in the 55-59yrs, if you want to see Dave's Medal i'm sure it will still be hanging around his neck for the next month!
