April 17 – 19th was the annual Academy Games held in the great location of Tamworth. This is a weekend where all the NSW Regional Academies come together for their annual competition. Whilst our squad are not members of an official academy, we are able to race in ROSTA, Rest of State Triathlon Academy.

The weekend is not just about the race but also a chance to stay in a camp environment to further work on skills development, life skills, race day preparation, recovery and independence. It was a great weekend travelling together with other ROSTA athletes and the Central Coast Academy (CCAS) and staying in camp with other triathletes across various NSW academies.

Saturday was a solid day with 38 athletes across the state coming race. Each competitor raced 2 heats on the Saturday with Liam making the A final and then focus on recovery for the finals on Sunday morning. Finals results were Liam 3rd Junior male, Olivia 2nd Youth female, Anastasia 3rd Youth female and in the fantasy Mixed Team relay, Liam and Olivia combined with Koby to form the ROSTA team and taking 3rd in the relay.

A great weekend of racing and end to the season for pathways racing. Super pleasing for all our squad represented coming away with medals. We also were able to attend a pathways in sport presentation with 3 Olympians presenting and available for questions. On Sunday Jaz Hedgeland (Australian Olympian – Triathlon) presented the awards and many athletes relished the opportunity to be able to chat and ask her questions about triathlon and racing at the top level, which was a highlight of the weekend for them.

The last week of February 2020 was a good week for Triathlon and congratulations to everyone has raced during the week.

Firstly during the week it was All Schools Triathlon and Grace had an absolute smashing race. This was her goal race for the season and what she had been working for. Coming out of the swim in 2nd place and on the bike a group of 5 formed (non drafting) with everyone staying in close contact. When the run started all 5 girls made their intentions clear that it was going to be a fast and hard run. It was a close finish with Grace finishing 3rd and qualifying for the Nationals which was the goal and a massive leap in race form over the last 12 months. I was also involved with a school team of racers and of the 5 races we entered we managed to achieve podium finishes in 4 races.

Over the Weekend we had the Go-Series triathlon. The kids tri team was racing with Sebastian, Harvey, Ellie and Isaac. They all had strong races including the 2 fastest times in the boys short course for Sebastian and Harvey overall. It is great to see our team confident, fast and slick in their racing and transitions.

Finally there was also Husky triathlon with a number of people racing over the weekend. Lily from the kids tri team took on the kids race and Grace fresh from racing All Schools took on the sprint allegedly with no goals or expectations. Well when you are on fire you become unstoppable! Grace took the sprint race hard and started the run in 2nd place overall roughly 40 seconds behind the race leader. Another blistering run saw her take first place by 24 seconds. Well done Grace I am sure this is only the beginning of what you will achieve.

Race #2 of the Go Series was held at the weekend. Due to the recent heavy rains the format was changed from a Triathlon to a Duathlon. Even though there was a change in format race numbers were still high and the kids enthusiasm was even higher. This was another great opportunity for the kids to race and also put their skills from training into practice. We can’t wait for the next race in two weeks time. Fingers crossed the water will be given the all clear for a swim and return to triathlon format.

Special congratulations to our Tri debutants, Lily, Jake and Oliver. We were all well prepared not only fitness wise but with slick and smooth transitions. Whilst the focus is on having a go and doing your best it was especially pleasing to see 3 of our team win their respective category. We are looking for to race 2 on 16 February.
