Mooloolaba Men's ITU Triathlon World Cup 2014

Hi all

Following up on my previous post on the 2014 Mooloolaba Women's ITU Triathlon World Cup, here's my post on the 2014 Mooloolaba Men's ITU Triathlon World Cup also held on Saturday 15 March 2014.

Yep - the swim leg was again moved from the surf to the river due to heavy swell, so we witnessed evidence of some shallow water in parts of the swim leg. :)

2014 Subaru Mooloolaba Women's ITU Triathlon World Cup - Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia

Hi all

On 15 March 2014 I enjoyed a great day at Super Saturday at the Mooloolaba Multi Sport Festival. This included both the men's and women's International Triathlon Union (ITU) Triathlon World Cup events featuring some of the world's most talented triathletes. Here are some pics from the 2104 Subaru Mooloolaba Women's ITU Triathlon World Cup.

Noosa Triathlon MultiSport Festival 2013

Hi all

Here's a progressive update on my 'photo trip' to last weekend's Noosa Triathlon Multi Sport Festival. As I process the photos I took on the weekend I'll update this blog post with links to my various photo galleries. At this stage I'll just include a link to each gallery and perhaps a sample pic. Here goes! :)
