CTC National Series Race Plan – Cork Triathlon Club

As we draw close to the start of the National Series races, it is time to announce this years Cork Triathlon Club chosen races! There are a total of 18 races in the Triathlon National Series (NS), the club will target 8 of these. To complete the round of NS events, each athlete partaking needs to race 4 (1 Olympic distance, 1 sprint and 2 others) to gather individual points and points towards club & overall NS. The more points the better!

The series is way of rewarding participants, as well as the Club making triathlon a fun team sport with a competitive edge.

Last year the club had over 60 participants in national series races, some competing in 1 race and some competing in more than 6 races, helping lead us to the 2nd placed team in Ireland – only a couple of points away from 1st! Every finisher counts!

This year we want to encourage as much participation as possible!

NS races sell out fast, so please enter soon, and let us know that you have.

Before each race, we’re aiming to put together a race info sheet from those of us who have raced before – with a few hints and tips on what to do coming up to and on race day.

Drop us a message if you have any questions and we have a whatsapp group set up also, which we will include in the next Newsletter.

Thanks, Amy, Owen & Donncha, National Series Committee
