Hello OxfordTri Family
I hope that you’ve had a great week. It was so great to see so many people at our AGM on Thursday night, more info of which can be found below. Two main things from me to highlight this week both in relation to our End of Season Awards Night which is in a couple of weeks time.
We’ve managed to negotiate a slightly larger capacity which means we have a few more tickets which are available HERE but be quick!
Secondly, we have opened nominations for our awards for the evening there has been a few come in but we’d love to see more so please do head here to nominate your fellow club mates. You can follow the link HERE to do this
Finally, a huge shout out to Lead Coach Sean who has been racing over at the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii and to fellow committee member Grace who has also been racing stateside at Ironman California. We can’t wait to hear all about those adventures.
Hope you have an amazing week and I will hopefully see some of you at some sessions across the week.
God Bless
Craig

OxfordTri Goes Cross-Country – 2024/25 Season
It’s Cross Country season and the Club will again be competing in the Oxfordshire Cross Country League. As in previous seasons the League runs on the first Sunday of every month from November to March. It is often the highlight of the year for many club members both on a competitive level and also a social one. Last year we had our highest ever OxfordTri representation with 46 members taking part across the league.
Each race day we often travel as a team so don’t worry if you don’t have transport as lifts should be available to the race venue, where we will then run around in the mud for about 7km before finishing with homemade cake, or on the odd occasion a pub lunch. The first race of the year is on Sunday 3rd November.
In order to join in with the muddy fun you need to sign up firstly for an English Athletics Membership which is £19 for the 2024/25 season, if you don’t already have one. Then your entry for the league which is £16 for the remaining four races starting in December. Please see below the two links for signing up and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact Katie and Clive who are our amazing Cross Country Coordinators via EA@oxfordtri.co.uk
