September Club night and Track triathlon: Sep 23rd, Glenmore Athletic Park – Track #17 at 6:00 pm

Hello runners, Hope you have trained well this long summer building your speed and endurance. To cap it all off and test our peak form as well as to get us ready for the fall activities, we are organizing our 15th Annual Fun Track Triathlon on Thursday, September 23rd at the Glenmore Athletic Park – Track #17 (5300 19 St SW, Calgary, AB T3E 1P1) at 6:00 pm. Note the start time has changed! This is a challenging trio of races; 2000m, 1000m, and 600m with the winner posting the fastest cumulative time (see the flyer below for records). After the run, we will go for a drink at Garrison Pub & Eatery (2040 42 Ave SW).

Please take a look at the temporary measures instituted in Alberta towards combating COVID-19. Accordingly, runners who would like to join for the drinks in the pub after the run are required by law and by the Garrison Pub to present “Valid paper or digital vaccine record that shows name, vaccine type and date of administration” of at least one dose of COVID vaccine and “Valid photo identification that matches the vaccine record”. In addition, “Isolation is still legally required for people who have COVID-19 symptoms or tested positive.”

You can see the history and previous years’ results on this page.

This run consists of three separate races (2000m / 1000 m / 600 m) with short breaks in between. Athletes must record their own times (individual and overall race times) and enter them under their names in the sheet to be provided. Lowest overall race time is considered to be the winner. You are also welcome to choose one or two races to run.

Course records:

Jan Pedder (2007) – 2000m 6:26 / 1000m 2:53 / 600m 1:40 / Total 10:59

Maria Zambrano (2019) – 2000m 7:15 / 1000m 3:27 / 600m 1:56 / Total 12:38

See you at the track,

Sathish
