Winterman is your chance to complete a half ironman distance event in the middle of winter, if you aren't ready for a half we have 2 shorter distances too. We are going to carpool out to Te Marua dairy for some sweet countryside cycling. The run will still be the incline walkway and the swim well we are happy for you to organise that yourselves any time within 24 hours of the event (and submit it via screenshot).
Distance options:
Half: 2km swim, 90kmish bike and 20km run (to the incline station and back).
2/3rds: 1500m swim, 60kmish ride and 15km run
Quarter: 1000m swim, 42kmish ride and 10km run.
Logistics:
We will help organise pickups as required eg, from freyberg pool at - 7:30am - but we may find people can organise group pickups in the comments.
8:10am registration and lots of nervous talk about how little training we have done.
8:15am til 8:45am cycle starts at Te Marua dairy - self seeding your start group.
10am til midday people will be finishing the bike and packing up to drive up to the incline.
Registration and other details:
This event is free for Tri Wellington members and is intended as our August social gathering. After the run we suggest have some snacks and a chat at the incline carpark then around 2:30 anyone who is keen can meet at Brewtown (we went to Boneface last year).
You join in at your own risk and we will send updates via this event page so sign up even if you are only 'interested'.
Please choose a distance commensurate with your level of fitness
If the weather is foul on Saturday and looks better on Sunday we will change days.
Thanks and see you on the course.
If you have any questions send us a message or post here in the event, we are always open to new course ideas if you are feeling creative.
