Sandy Ostini Colour Triathlon and Duathlon – Saturday 9th December 2023

It was a wonderful afternoon out at Gosling Creek for the Sandy Ostini Triathlon and Duathlon last saturday.

Some solid money was raised for cancer research as well as being a great participation event for the women members and friends of Orange Piranhas – finish lines not finish times!

Thanks to all the volunteers and participants who came out despite the heat and made this event possible. Thanks also to Cas Ingham for the finisher flowers.
