25.01.2022 No dog paddle for the wolf pack tonight, just plenty of hard work and lots of smiles...once it was over at least. Want to get fitter, faster and generally more fantastic? Come swim, ride and run with the pack. #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #swimming #swim #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso #perthisok #perthfitness

24.01.2022 A wolf doesn't need to be strong, brave and fierce every day. Sometimes you feel tired, cold and unmotivated but one thing is for certain, you're always stronger with the pack. The potential weather gave plenty of excuses but we all were rewarded for our grit with a great session in the bank and a glorious sunrise. Come swim, ride and run with the pack. #wymtm #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #running #run #loverunning #training #triathlontraining #intervals #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso

22.01.2022 Due to the severe weather warning for the area, unfortunately we must cancel this morning's trail run. With forecast wind gusts of 90kph it is not safe to run in amongst the trees due to the risk of falling branches. Enjoy your impromptu rest morning.Due to the severe weather warning for the area, unfortunately we must cancel this morning's trail run.

21.01.2022 The Wolves were out on a mission today to check the dam levels. It was a really up and down morning but it couldn't have been spent with a better crew. Come swim, ride and run with the pack. #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #cycling #cyclingshots #cyclingphotos #cyclingpics #instacycling #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso703 #roadtobusso

21.01.2022 We would like to make sure all our members and supporters are aware of new public health measures enacted yesterday (full link below) to prevent the spread of Covid19 in our community. Of particular note for the triathlon community is the direction that people should not engage in Affected Activities including a gathering of 2 or more people, who do not ordinarily reside at the same premises, for the purposes of engaging in a sporting activity together This incurs financial... penalties up to $20,000 for individuals and $100,000 for organisations. While triathlon is mainly an individual sport, we know that our clubs, coaches and club mates are one of the most important factors in motivating us to our individual success. These new government directions may be upsetting and it's ok to have those feelings. These are unprecedented times for most of us. But please remember that these measures are temporary, yet the impact they will have in saving the lives of people close to us are significant. Talk to your family and club mates about sharing ideas for training at home and motivating each other online. Our club, for one, is looking at virtual training and race options and please send us a PM if you would like more info.

20.01.2022 As the 2019/2020 triathlon season draws to a close during these most unusual times, we are starting to look to the future. We want to spend some time in the off-season to firstly find out what you want from your club and then create a plan to put it all in to place. The first step is to get your input regarding what you think of the club and find out what you think is missing or could be improved. We would love for you to complete the survey at the link below and play a part in your club's bright future. Just 8 click response questions which should take only 3 minutes to complete. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Q56P98Y

19.01.2022 Let's get physical, physical... If that phrase brings flashbacks there's no reason that you can't be better than you were back when it was a hit. Age is just a number (eve if it's a rather big number) and working in a progressive manner as our sessions build on each other will get you there safely. Encourage a buddy to join and double your commitment. See you soon!

19.01.2022 Looking for a reason to sign up this season? Look no further. Whether your finish line is the 70.3 in October, the half in December or the full beast we've got a program to get you there. Don't wait 'til it's too late. http://perthhillstri.org.au/70-3-long-course-programs/ ... http://perthhillstri.org.au/iron-distance-program/ @ironmantri @bussohalf @triathlonwa @triaustralia @triathlon #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso #roadtobusso703

19.01.2022 Triathlon season looming but the swim leg still a monkey on your back? There's only one way to fix that little problem and it's not by staying dry or struggling through endless laps by yourself. Get down to squad tonight to start making progress on your best season of swimming yet. 6pm Wednesday Swan Active... Gray drive, Midvale See more

19.01.2022 What a way to start the day! #wymtm #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #running #run #loverunning #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso

19.01.2022 It's not a terrible bell view but it's not a patch on the one for tomorrow's trail run. Meet at 6 am at the Bellevue RSL in Purton Place and let the hills do the work for you. It hurts less with help but you can be helpless of you never hurt at all. Torches are a good idea for the first 10-15 minutes.

18.01.2022 Welcome to the October training calendar. The season has officially started and if you haven't realised just how unfit the COVID off-season has made you don't worry you aren't far away from it! Good luck... Due to (lack of) popular demand there are a couple of changes to the calendar this month. Our online turbo is being dropped as an official session and Bushmead has been taken out of the run interval rotation. Thursday morning trail run is now strictly opt-in. This means that if nobody has responded to the Facebook event as "going" by 8pm the night before you will be running solo. So get off the fence and commit early, it's for your own good. http://perthhillstri.org.au/training-calendar/

18.01.2022 A few photos from today's race at Mullaloo. Got some photos? Add them here.

17.01.2022 We're back baby! Starting in the early hours of tomorrow morning we kickstart a new era of training for the club. We've listened to the feedback you offered us and made some big changes. You said you wanted morning run sessions, coaches said they wanted a sleep-in but who listens to them? You also said you wanted something more than stand-alone sessions so we've created a structured, progressive plan that will have each session build on the ones before them to make you better, week on week. Come check them out, offer your feedback and be part of the pack.

17.01.2022 Give your Mum the VIP treatment with Entertainment. Packed with thousands of valuable offers across dining, retail, attractions and travel, an Entertainment Membership is the gift she can enjoy all year round. We think Mum will love it even more by supporting Perth Hills Tri Club. She will also receive an eGift Card bonus. Click the link to buy today!... https://www.entertainment.com.au/orderbooks/9t29961

17.01.2022 Week one back at training was such a huge success we've decided to go around again! Still no swimming but with the further lifting of restrictions by the government we're hoping to hear good news soon. In the meantime take advantage of the opportunity to improve your running and cycling with friends.

16.01.2022 Any coach that tells you they have some secret proprietary session that will give you a special edge on your competition is having a laugh at your expense. If you're not winning national titles (and I don't mean age-group) then doing the well established basics better, more consistently and for longer will be the unglamorous path to a better performance. That's why we "borrow" the tried and tested sessions of others, some are just more honest about it! Today's run session i...s one of the greats, stolen from one of the greats. Steve Moneghetti was told he wasn't wanted at Little Athletics but went on to become possibly Australia's greatest distance runner. Today we're presenting a session that he came up with in a conversation over the phone with his coach which has since become famous world-wide and now bears his name. The Mona-Fartlek, as it is known, is designed to improve speed AND endurance in the one session. It's a great one to throw into the mix for any distance but is ideal for those training for races up to 5km. With a main set of just 20 minutes you could be done in under 45 with warm-up and cool down, or back off the pace a little and go twice through! Mona-Fartlek 15-20min warm up 2 x 90sec hard, 90sec moderate (not too easy) 4 x 60sec hard, 60sec moderate 4 x 30sec hard, 30sec moderate 4 x 15sec hard, 15se moderate 10-15min cool down (or repeat) Now the beauty in this session is the number of ways you can complete it. If you just want to improve speed, go faster and back the recovery off more. If you want endurance then don't go so hard but don't drop the pace so much in the "rests". Speed up as the work repetitions get shorter or start harder and try to hold the pace. Fartlek is Swedish for "speed play", so have a little fun.

16.01.2022 Getting a head start on your 2021 resolutions by swimming tonight? Remember that Swan Active needs you to register upon entry as part of the state government's new COVID-19 plan. While they will have a manual register you can use, the SafeWA app is quick and easy. Simply search for "SafeWA" in your phone's app store. 6pm tonight, Wednesday 9th of December... Swan Active Gray drive, Midvale See more

16.01.2022 Good things come to those who wait. Wait too long though and you'll find it's the end of the season! If your racing season is over it's time to get out and support your fellow clubbies at the last few events and start setting yourself up for a great 2021/22. https://perthhillstri.org.au/training-calendar/

16.01.2022 Don't be a grinch, come and leap into the Christmas spirit with the PHTC Annual Christmas Swim Session. This is a once a year, not to be missed extravaganza. Tonight, 6pm, at Swan Active. Be there!

16.01.2022 Cracking morning for a ride. If you missed the 6:30 start, you've still got time to jump on the 7:30 train. Come on down! You'll kick yourself if you miss it!

14.01.2022 Triathlon Australia discounted membership rates for new TA/TWA memberships are available now! Come and join the Wolf Pack for fun, laughs, great training sessions and awesome coaching. https://www.triathlon.org.au//Discounted_Membership_Offer.

13.01.2022 "August" means impressive and having great respect. I think you'll agree that this is a most August training calendar here. The days are getting longer and the mornings warmer so isn't it time to come out of your winter hibernation and get moving? If that doesn't motivate you, the first races of the multisport season begin this month too! http://perthhillstri.org.au/training-calendar/

12.01.2022 Swimming's back baby! Hopefully it won't be long and we'll have a few more great sessions to round out your training week. Keep an eye out for some great member offerings coming up too.

12.01.2022 Join the coolest wolves in Perth tomorrow. Due to the the State Duathlon Championships and the club's race simulation both being held tomorrow morning and the effect this will have on numbers, tomorrow's ride from Kelmscott is being cancelled. Instead the club would like to welcome all members to head down to Deep Water Point in Mt Pleasant to join any or all of the swim, cycle or run portions of the simulation. Swim starts at 7:30am, if you're doing two or fewer disciplines please stick around to support your fellow pack members.

11.01.2022 Zoom? That's old news. When the wolf pack get together without getting together we Jitsi. Thanks Coach Caroline for your killer turbo session. A sixty minute group workout that's only one hour from home to home. Who could pass this up? #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #cycling #cyclingshots #instacycling #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso

Bring your MTB or CX bike as you will be on trails.Change of plans for tomorrow's ride: Will be leaving from Sculpture Park in Mundaring at 7am. Bring your MTB or CX bike as you will be on trails.

09.01.2022 It's been a while since we've visited our southern members on a ride which is a shame as it's such lovely scenery. Tomorrow we leave from Dome in Kelmscott for a tiptoe past the tulips*, dam it! A/B are leaving at 6:30am so bring your lights and layer your clothing as it will definitely warm up as we ride. Route: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/37277342... C group are off at 7:30am to enjoy the scenery in daylight. Route: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/37277134 *Sorry, we're a bit early for tulip season.

09.01.2022 We're building, building, building but we all know that any construction is only as good as its foundations. Make sure you join us as consistently as you can because the sessions are designed to work together for maximum improvement. See you on the track, trail or TV!

09.01.2022 Due to the threat of continuing heavy storms, this morning's run session is postponed. Stay tuned for further information.Due to the threat of continuing heavy storms, this morning's run session is postponed. Stay tuned for further information.

08.01.2022 Always the rose between two thorns today, our intrepid president wasn't going to let the threat of rain stand in the way of a great morning on the bike. A threat was all it was though and after much climbing we were left both high and dry enough to enjoy pastries guilt free. Happy Fathers' Day to all the gents out there fortunate enough to have someone to practice their lame jokes on. #happyfathersday... #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #cycling #cyclingshots #instacycling #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso See more

08.01.2022 These are a few of my favourite things... Coaching early in the morning can sometimes be a grind but with great coffee and enthusiastic triathletes in the water the rewards are pretty good too. #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #swimming #swim #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri #roadtobusso #perthlife #perthfitness #perthisok

08.01.2022 It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Perth Hills. That can only mean it's time for the annual Wolf Pack Chrissy Cruise! An easy-paced meander up to Chidlow and back before retreating to the Parky for some essential "rehydration" and refueling. Sure beats a coffee shop ride! Wishing you all a Merry Christmas from the Perth Hills Triathlon Club athletes, coaches and committee. #hofilter #merrychristmas #trilife #triathlon #triathletes #swimbikerun #perthlife #cycling #cyclingshots #instacycling #training #triathlontraining #ironman #ironmantraining #perthhillstri

07.01.2022 Getting out early gets you TITS. Are you racing in 5 weeks? If you are and you're not here, why not?

06.01.2022 "Look! The Wolf Pack are already starting their training for next season!" Whether you're looking to build on a great season just finished or avoid another year of "if only" it won't be determined by what you do in the few months before but in the cold, dark sessions of winter. Too many triathletes start their next season no further than their last by taking extended time off and eroding the gains they fought for all season. The focus might change but it's important to kee...p laying the foundations day by day. Make a commitment to yourself that next season will be better, and it starts today because tomorrow becomes next week becomes next month becomes...oops! Swim Squad (doggy paddle lane available if you've been absent) 6pm tonight Swan Active Gray Drive, Midvale

06.01.2022 Last week Triathlon Western Australia Inc shared a page from Tri-ing Times, the source for local triathlon news in 1988 (printed on papyrus we believe.)

Q2: Can you spot the very local legend who's still going strong in the tri scene?
