As you are aware this race is extremely important to our club and is a major fund raiser ensuring swim and run coaching, are either paid for in full or heavily subsidised for you, the members. This event is the one day in the year that your club request you make yourselves available in order to run a safe, successful event so, as in the past, we will assume that you all will be in attendance at Lough Dan on 25th July unless you contact me on moley@live.ie stating otherwise. Please contact me with details of family and friends who can also marshal on the day as, in previous years, they have been of great assistance and have really enjoyed the experience. All marshals will receive a Crew tee-shirt, a goodie bag and food will be served at a BBQ by the lakeside after the event.
Simon Bewley is this years Chief Marshall and will be in contact with you all shortly regarding marshal positions so if you could email me immediately with the names of family and friends and or if you are unavailable it would be very much appreciated.
A huge amount of work goes into running this event but it cannot happen without your assistance on the day.
Thanks for all your support and we look forward to seeing you, your family and friends on the day.
Yours in tri,
Paul O'Connor
Race Director
53 Degrees North Beast of The East
Its that time of the year again when the Race Committee of The 53 Degrees North Beast of the East starts putting together the final pieces to ensure we maintain Wicklow Triathlon Clubs reputation for putting on the best run event in the country. Your Race Committee has been working hard behind the scenes for 6 months now in order to ensure we once again run a race of the highest standard and the last piece in the puzzle is getting 100 marshals to report for duty on the day.
