Message from the President

Adai GTF Members!
Well, after a very long hiatus, our website has actually
been updated. There are still a few pages that are in need
of work, namely the race schedule and membership info, but
the pace should not be as glacial as before. Thank you for
your patience.

(11 April 2010)
Race #2 in the Dual Distance Series saw a significant increase in participation from the first race. Fifty-two racers showed up early race morning at the USO in Piti.

Among them were several visiting athletes from New Zealand - ready to mix it up with the locals. As always, the heat would be a factor, but the presence of jellyfish during the swim became a surprise culprit, affecting at least 4 racers. Luckily, no emergency personnel had to be summoned.
With all racers in the water, brief instructions and review of the course were given. Shortly after 7:00am the siren blared and the race was on.
