    Lumpy??;-) I'm looking forward to it, I'll be travelling alone so is there somewhere to lock away belongings?

    That im not sure of, im not sure what the finer details are this year, im sure there will be some class of bag drop there

    Similar position to OP... Can you push off from the wall of the pool when turning?

    Also... Lumpy???

    They said it would be available on Wednesday, but these things usually take longer than expected. Should see it sometime today I would expect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,075 ✭✭✭BTH


    And waves lists are now available.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 641 ✭✭✭JEmily


    Just got my wave, i feel sick:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,321 ✭✭✭Daz1214


    Just enjoy it, let it be a nice end to the season ;)

    5 per lane sounds fairly spacious, which is good. Pool swims can get every messy so hopefully no problems on Saturday. And hopefully I can hang onto the feet around me. :D

    Well done to everyone involved.

    I believe congratulations go to mod BTH who not only took podium but took the top of the podium in what has to be the best ever example of how to hide your form.

    Welcome back dude!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 284 ✭✭aidanor


    It was a great event great day, congrats to BTH
    When are the times being put up?

    Has anyone there got an entry they're not using this weekend?
    I'd love to end my season off with this one, but it looks like it's sold out.

    I was also hoping to do this as my first tri - but looks like entries are closed - don't suppose there are any other folks not using their entry for this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,928 ✭✭✭MojoMaker


    Is Naas TC allowing transfers?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,928 ✭✭✭MojoMaker


    Congratulations to joey100 on his 2nd place in the Killashee Triathlon today. Nice fast course, well organised, and a good vibe.

    Well done Joe, and thumbs up Naas TC.
