Race 1 - St Kilda
Race Director's Report
Congratulations to all participants of the Gatorade Triathlon Series 09/10 and Brooks Fun Tri Series 09/10. Special mention also goes to Peter Kerr and Renee Lane, the winners of the Gatorade Triathlon Series 'Elite' category for Race 1.
Race 1 kicked off in typical Melbourne fashion with drizzling showers, heavy showers and even sun showers. The joviality and spirits of participants however remained high however with constant cheering and ongoing support a feature during the testing conditions.
Between the hours of 5pm to 5am, prior to the event, our rain gauge had a reading of 30mm. For water pollution reasons, the swim leg was replaced with a 1.5km run for Gatrade participant's and a 500m run for Brooks competitors.
Mention must also go to Xavier College who sprinkled the colours with red and black with a great showing. Eltham Triathlon club who managed to continue cheering and supporting their members (despite dealing with a fallen marquee) were also awarded bonus points for their Tri club.
