Richard Thompson What next

Only 15 days after Challenge Wanaka I will be warming up in the MacIntyre River ready to race in the Woods Grain, Chesterfield Australia and John Deere Goondiwindi Hell of the West Triathlon.  As an 18-24 age grouper I really enjoyed racing this long course country race.  With thanks to Anna Dawson and the Goondiwindi Triathlon Club I am can’t wait to spending another weekend out at Gundi and seeing how fast I can go.  If you haven’t done this race, make sure you don't miss out – it is a truly unique weekend.

In a move to see me training  and in turn achieving more consistent results, I welcome Kristian Manietta and his team at TriSpecific to the coaching role.  Kristian brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table and although I have only been under his guidance for a short time, the improvements in training have already been noticeable.  I look forward to forming a great partnership over the next few years.  TriSpecific…because the answers have changed.
