Great work for all who involved! Everyone is a winner!
To the kids who competed, well done! Just look at your big smiles.
To the parents, great job supporting your kids all the way!
To our coach, Sandra (Teri and Sean’s mum), a big thank for your dedication and patience over the last 6 weeks. Adam wouldn’t have done it without you.
To Barb and Janet, thanks for getting the team together and having the Summerland tent out on the day.
The last six weeks have been a journey. When Adam put his hand up for the Tryathlon toward the end of last year, we were a little surprised. His swimming and running are passable but not great. Well he said he would give it a go. Ok, we said you need to train for the race to get the most out of it.
The last six weeks have been training just about every day with Sandra. With a tough training regime, Adam’s ability and confidence in the water improves and so does his running. It is like anything; the more you put in the more you can get out I suppose. The day before the big day, we knew Adam would finish the race without too much trouble. And so he did with lots of pride and joy.
It is fantastic to see what one can achieve by putting their mind and effort to it.

Fun

Congratulations to all the kids who competed. So fantastic to see so many great big smiles.
If you haven't done the Tryathlon before - you should give it a go. It is really well organised and Terri & Sean had an absolute blast.
They said it was easy (however, suspect that might have been to do with the training ....).
Thank you to Pam and Adam who turned up to training day after day after day.
Thanks Barb & Janet. Was fantastic to have a meeting point for everyone. We really got the Summerland "brand" out there.
The St Heliers event is in March. Looks like we'll have another team there. Maybe time to give it a go .....

Nice Job
