Busselton Ironman December 5th 2009
On what can only be described as a torrid day in the sun Fremantle Triathlon Club had twenty members taking part in the Busseleton IM WA. There were a number of particularly impressive performances. Notably, Brad Wall placed 1st in the 18 - 24 years male category in a time of 9 hours 17 minutes. Caitlin Bridgland 3rd in the 18 - 24 years female and 5th place to Kate Bevilaqua (Pro Women), June Ward (45 - 49 years), Michael McCormick (50 - 54 years), Phillippa Hamilton (18 - 24 years).

FTC volunteer at IM
Thanks to the encouragement of Clayton Gunning a number of FTC members took on the challenge of helping out at Busso this year. We were assigned to a bike aid-station 10 km out of town. Despite the heat (there was limited shade) and the frantic pace of the 'job' it was an amazing experience. It was my first time volunteering at an ironman and my first ever on a bike aid-station. To coordinate the handing of bottles to athletes not interested in slowing down took a bit of practice! Despite this most of the competitors were incredibly thankful to the volunteers. It was a tiring day but well worth the effort. I would recommend the experience to any of you. C.H.


ITU World Long Course Championships, October 25th 2009.

Fremantle Triathlon Club was well represented at the LD World Champs held in Perth yesterday. We had nine men and ten women across all ages. Congratulations to all of you on what turned out to be a very tough day. Of the 19 athletes we had three podium finishes: Caitlin Bridgland, 2nd 20 - 24 years, Brynt McSwain also 2nd in the 25 - 29 year age group and Janine Willis (representing Canada) 2nd in the 35 - 39 year group. In addition, there were three more top ten finishes. Sally Scaffidi a bit unlucky to miss out on the medals by coming 4th in the 40 -44 year group. Tim Howley 6th in 45 - 49 year age group and Julia Marr 7th in the 30 to 34 year group.
All results for our members have been summarized on this spreadsheet.

CLUB VOLUNTEERS
A constant call for volunteers. To assist FTC with the smooth running of club events we are always looking for volunteers. The committee would like to invite members to help in a range of club activities: at club races, seeking sponsorship, organising social events, writing news articles, looking up results or cooking BBQs.

If you would like to volunteer please contact Daniel Lenane on
0439 736 300 or email freofarm@virginbroadband.com.au and leave your name and contact number and what you are interested in volunteering for.

 

Make sure everyone can share in your happiness, triumphs or disappointments!

We want to know if people have an important race coming up so that we can let everyone know how you’ve gone.  It’s hard to keep track of everyone’s races in Perth, interstate and overseas.  Please email us to let us know if you have something coming up.
