Evening all

Things are looking ‘good’ on the weather front for Sunday (but it’s all relative I guess) and the Race Committee have done an excellent job of getting everything ready (good work!).  Race details below:

• Race – St Catherine’s Duathlon
• Date – Sun 16 Feb
• Sign on – 7/715am
• Start 745am PROMPT!
• Distances – approx. 5k/22k/3k
• Whilst it is a “Seniors Race”, Junior members who are 15 or older on 31 Dec 2014 can race.  Parental consent will need to be given (via a signed declaration) on the day.
• The Café is apparently opening early to allow for spectators etc.  Bring a friend.
• Entry – free for members.  £10 for non-members (the amnesty is over and race fees apply to all with no exceptions, if you’re not a member – get signed up via Entry Central now!)

Looks like the turnout will be good.  I am looking forward to finding out the answers to the following questions that are playing on my mind…

• Will diesel engine Minky be all freshly waxed up and shiny?
• Will Damien be chatting away during the whole race, or just the first run leg?
• Will Mark “the Machine” Nicol be able to physically defend himself on the bike if Nathan overtakes?
• Will Jonny Flanagan be using his laptop during the race?
• Will Tim Rogers wear his helmet again during the run to save time in transition?  (Marginal gains Tim, I say it every time…)
• Will Lyndon recover from a very serious bout of man flu (it hits us men very hard) to challenge for a podium spot?
• Will the golden couple of Triathlon (Simon R and Della R) cross the line holding hands?
• Will anyone catch Jo “Go Go” Gorrod?
• Will anyone catch Ollie “Turbo” Turner?!
