HANDICAP RACE THIS SUNDAY 9th MARCH

For something different and a little bit fun, the Orange Piranhas Triathlon Club are putting on a handicap race this Sunday 9th March. The handicap race will consist of a 400m swim, 20km bike and 5km run.

The handicapper is currently putting the finishing touches on the handicaps. No need to pre-register, just turn up on the day and be ready to race. If you usually place in the last 10 or so of the field, please could you arrive a bit earlier than usual and be ready to race from approximately 9:15am.

Please note that the handicap race will NOT accrue points towards Club Championships.

There will still be the usual midgets, juniors races and shorter course races. These will not be handicapped.

Registrations open at 8am, with the following race times:

Midgets 50m – 600m – 400m @ 8:30am

Juniors 80m – 2km – 800m @ 8:45am

Short Internal – 150m – 5km – 1km @ 9:15am

Handicap race –  400m – 20km – 5km @ anywhere between 9:15am and 10:30am depending on your handicap.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
