 Race FAQs

 

  • The short answer is NO. Dubbo Triathlon Club welcome athletics of all abilities. We do have members that attend training sessions and take their competitions very seriously, however with so many legs and different groups it’s very likely no one will notice if you come in first or last. The most important thing is to come and have some fun!

  • This is an entirely up to you. If you’ve never completed a triathlon before, why not start with the mini, if you are a seasoned athlete and feel capable why not do the sprint?

  • Our typical race distances for club days are:

    Mini - 125m swim / 2km cycle/ 1km run

    Enticer 125m swim / 9km cycle/ 2km run

    Sprint 500m swim / 18km cycle/ 4km run

    However these are subject to change with the conditions

  • This depends upon your target race, the level of proficiency you want to achieve and your base level of fitness. As a general rule of thumb you can build up to at least 2 runs, 2 bikes, 2 swims and a stretch (or yoga / pilates) session each week, though longer courses may require additional training sessions. It is considered good practice to have one day per week as a “rest” or no exercise day.

  • Again, this is a personal choice. At the beginning you may want to come to all of the club training sessions and seek the opportunity to chat to other athletes whilst joining in with a training session. Some members like the discipline of following a set training plan, other members have to fit training in around work, family and other commitments and need the flexibility that having your own training plan can give. You can also research training plans online.

  • You definitely don’t need to wear a uniform to compete in races. But it does feel really great to join the community.

    If you want to go the extra mile you can grab a club uniform suit from our shop.
