Now in its 3rd year Lake Mac Tri is based in the idyllic setting of Speers Point Park and just a short trip up the M1 from Sydney is convenient for both a weekend trip away or day trip. The race accommodates a good range of distances from Super Sprint to Standard Distance and Kids Races too.
This year the Super Sprint also featured as the Australian Super Sprint Champs. Both Anastasia and myself raced in the Super Sprint and also from Kids squad Harrison and Spencer were racing in the Kids events (supported by Dad in Standard Distance).
Super Sprint was fast and furious with both Anastasia (7th female overall) and myself taking Silver in our age groups. A great race and location. Looking forward to returning next year.
This is the event that our squad all looks forward to every year and a chance to put all the consistent training into practice.
Well done to all of our team for great results at All Schools. Everyone did exceptional and there is clear evidence of big improvements in speed, skill and fitness since last year.
Congratulations to both Ruby and Liv both first time qualifiers for triathlon nationals, with the race to be held in March at Runaway Bay on the Gold Coast.
