Hornsby Aquathon

During the race season, the Hornsby Triathlon Club has bi weekly aquathons. Its consists of a 500m swim and a 3.8km run. They had a record number of racers this past week (35+ athletes) and with all the friends and family it was quite a spectacle. We raced, then had a BBQ and a special guest showed up!

Sprint racing is exhilarating, but quite hard. I had forgot that once the gun goes off, you just red line it to the finish line. It was fun (and painful) going as fast as you can. It was definitely a 'sprint.'

Wow that was hard!

What did you think? - Holy crap that hurt! It was great!

That's one huge snag! (that's Aussie for sausage)

Santa made an appearance and had lollies (candy) for all the kids.
