Virtual Keep Active Event – Register now to get progressive results and new events

Hi Piranhas

Hope you are all keeping healthy and well.

Whilst our triathlon season was abruptly halted due to Covid 19 its important to note that one of the activities we are allowed to leave home for is personal exercise in the neighbourhood, on your own or with one other, provided social distancing principals are adhered to by maintaining a distance of 1.5 metres between people.

Steve Martin and Precision Sports Timing have been working with Orange City Council to set up a community based virtual event to try and keep people active whilst we don’t have any other sport available.

Here is the registration link: https://endurancecui.active.com/new/events/68600454/select-race?_p=03220156135574603

We have registered a team for the Orange Triathlon Club and encourage you to join in with these virtual events either with the Orange Triathlon Club team or individually.

If you are registering kids the easiest way to do is to login as a parent or guardian and register them. The process can get complicated if trying to register as a child.

The process is you register online as an individual or as part of a team. Within 24hours (i.e. don’t look at the results page and ask why your name isn’t there yet) your name will appear on a results page and you simply do a walk, run, ride or whatever exercise you like during the week and enter your time and details for your exercise. If you get a better time later in the week then update your results. Progressive results will be calculated daily and uploaded to the results page. On a weekly basis starting on a Monday there will be a new event and you can start again. You only register once and you will be registered each week.

The current events Steve has setup are:

  • 1km walk or run
  • 3km walk or run
  • 5km walk or run
  • 5km bike
  • 10km bike
  • 20km bike
  • Enter you total run distance for a week
  • Enter your total ride distance for the week
  • Random exercise option

Teams could be work teams, sports clubs, sporting teams, gyms, training groups, families, school teams or school houses.

Team results are based on the fastest 4 in a team or longest 4 in the distance events.

Results will be displayed here https://www.precision.st/results with a new race each Monday.

Steve will update the results with new members and results every night.

Happy exercising Piranhas
