Mini-Aquathon: Wed 8 February, 14.00-16.00

A final reminder about our second mini-aquathon event this Wednesday. This event is free to enter and consists of a 400m swim followed by a 2 Km run.

The swim will take place in the PEC pool, and the run is two laps outdoors. Meet on Wednesday at 2pm in the sports hall to the right of the entrance to the swimming pool, where you can leave your towel and running shoes (and T-shirt/shorts if you are not swimming in a trisuit).

Afterwards we will retire to the Parlour for beer and pizza!

Plans for February 2012

Re:Freshers' Fair will be on Wednesday 1 February 2012, 10am-4pm. This is an opportunity to sign up new members for the club at the beginning of the second semester. We are looking for some volunteers to help us man our stall. If you can help, even for an hour or two, please let us know.

After Re:Freshers' Fair, we will run the second of our Mini-Aquathon series. This will be provisionally on the afternoon of 8 February.

We are also organising a second Mourne Cottage training weekend, from 10-12 February.

Note: There is a slight change to the programme for this event. Meet at 2pm outside the PEC swimming pool changing rooms for a short briefing. You will then have time to change and the event will start at the poolside at 2.30pm.

This year we are doing a Triathlon Taster event during QUB Welcome Week (Thu 22 Sept., 2-4pm). This is aimed at new students or anyone else who is thinking of joining the club; but it's open to everyone and it would be great to have a few more experienced triathletes along. Here's the blurb from the Welcome Week website:
