Happy FriYAY Team!

Bonjour, team! 🥖🚴‍♂️ Just a heads-up—I’m off to France for a bit of “cross-training” in coffee sipping and pastry devouring!  I’ll be trading GC winter kit for the French summer and long rides through the French Alps rather than Beechy!

In all seriousness, this is an incredible coaching opportunity and I am so excited to be part of a new pathway for sub elite athletes & being amongst the best racing in the world!  🏊‍♂️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♂️✨

Dèsolè, pas dèsolè pour les photos entrantes!!! 📷🚵‍♀️🏔️

YOU are stronger than YOU think,

Alli

Can you believe it.....finally....a weekend with no racing LOL!!! Time to recharge Team, enjoy these next few weekend of training! 

The Brisbane Valley Rail Trail Weekend IS FINALLY HERE!!!  Thanks Kath for organsing this, its never easy trying to find dates to suit people LOL!!! For the latest plans for the weekend, please head on over to our Facebook page.  This is going to be another awesome weekend away

Have a think about adding some of these events to your calendar  :  Gold Coast Marathon and Sunny Coast Marathon. And looking into 2026, a definite for running enthusiasts is Tarawera, there is a distance for everyone AND Steve Jackson from Trail Trips has slots on his tour OPEN NOW! T100 racing is now open, it is going to be SO exciting having this format of racing right here on the Gold Coast! And, entries for the Dreamworld Fun Run are also now OPEN

Yes, it is getting dark earlier, and there is a chill in the air which means winter is approaching! Please remember the importance of safety in the darker morning out riding AND running. On all our group rides you will be required to have working FRONT and REAR lights. 

Old Esk Railway Station Saturday 31st May

May is another month jam packed with racing every weekend, so, lets incorporate our On Tour with our Brisbane Valley Rail Trail Weekend :-)

Many of the crew are heading to Esk & staying at the caravan park, so what better way to add an O to our parkrun alphabet than running the Old Esk Railway Station parkrun!

The course starts at the Old Esk Railway Station, and is a 2 lap, southbound out & back along the concrete BVRT path, with a circular loop into the Esk Showgrounds on each return lap. 

I have no doubt this will be a really scenic and enjoyable run, somewhere completely different for us......and who knows where we will end up for breakfast & coffee! 

MultisportGOLD is all about community and encouraging members to push (safely) individual limits and become stronger athletes.

With the new 2024-2025 Triathlon season kicking off on 1st July 2024, NOW is the time to start logging in your race results. Every parkrun, every race is worth valuable points, so be in it to win and lets see how is going to be our new Club Male & Female Champions!

We have modified the points system, so make sure you know the rules and you MUST be wearing your Multisport Gold kit! We are making the Club Championship to fully acknowledge the commitment and effort required by all MultisportGOLD athletes in getting to the start line and completing any one of the event categories. So it doesn't matter if your a triathlete, or a runner, this series is inclusive for us all!

It is super easy to log your points. Just head to the website, simply fill in the tabs and you're on your way!
