Hi All,
Dry season
weather is just amazing and with much to see and do at this time of year, it’s
great so many triathletes are still out enjoying their training.
We have
members racing far and wide at present. As well, many are continuing to
build on their training for the Darwin
Long Course.
If you
haven’t already done so, please add 5 July 2014 to your calendar. That’s
the date for our Annual Presentation Night Dinner. Venue and further
details are to be confirmed soon and Blue Cycles have kindly offered their
support for our big night.

This week we farewell Jane Marie Kerslake who is heading across the
ditch. We take this opportunity to thank Jane Marie again for her
contribution to the club particularly during her time as Treasurer. Good luck
Jane Marie, we wish you all the best.
2.

speedy recovery.
3.
Those members who attended Triathlon NT’s Heat & Hydration Seminar have a
new found appreciation of slurpees!
4.
Our juniors were happy to have Tri NT step in and run a replacement for their
cancelled event on Sunday. The kids (and parents) gained a whole lot of
skills.
5. Good
to hear that Cath Meng was wearing the DTC colours proudly in the Mackay
Triathlon over the weekend. You can take the triathlete out of Darwin but the
connection remains.
6. It
hasn’t taken long for Cairns to become aware of the arrival of Tim Green in
their town. He has quickly been adopted and will be making tri history over there at IM 70.3 Cairns.
7.
Also making history (well we think so anyway as we don’t know of anyone else
who has) will be Glen Scholz and Kylie Gaffel who are competing in the famous
Escape from Alcatraz triathlon at the weekend. Can’t wait to hear how this one
goes!
8.
Good luck to all our members taking part in the annual City 2 Surf on Sunday.
9
Over on the Big Island Phil Blumberg, Jo Ellis, Daryl Stanley, Tara Worby,
Robyn Stanley, Josh Mark and Paul Tilbrook will be competing in Ironman 70.3

The following weekend will see a number of members in action in Cairns.
Corinne Fabian, Graeme Parsons, Helen Bretten, Emily Heames, Nic French, Mark
Hearnden, Tim Green, Cath Hood, Jac Crofton and Scott Hanrahan will be among
them. Have fun folks.

And at Ironman Cairns set your trackers to watch out for Grant Preddy and
Marcus Lisle. Good luck guys!
