About
The Caloundra Triathlon Club is a sports club located in the picturesque Sunshine Coast of Australia. Established in 2009, the club aims to provide training and social opportunities for individuals interested in triathlon, whether they are beginners or seasoned athletes.
The club's main mission is to create a sense of community and connexion among its members while promoting a healthy and positive lifestyle. They strive to be a family-friendly environment where individuals and families can come together, get fit, and interact with like-minded people.
The club offers a range of training sessions and events throughout the year. Weekly training sessions cater to all levels and include rides along the coast and mountain ranges, as well as swim and run sessions. On the weekends, there is a relaxed run and swim session which is often followed by a social gathering.
In addition to training, the Caloundra Triathlon Club also organises regular family-friendly social events to further foster a sense of camaraderie among its members. These events provide opportunities to bond with fellow athletes and their families outside of training sessions.
A unique feature of the club is the use of animal names to identify members. Upon joining the club, each member is given an animal name that best represents their personality or with which they feel a connexion. This tradition adds a fun and personalised touch to the club's culture and helps to create a sense of identity and unity among its members.
The Caloundra Triathlon Club welcomes new members and encourages interested individuals to join. Membership information can be found on their website, or inquiries can be made through their contact page. Non-members are also welcome to try out their training sessions at Fraser Park in Golden Beach, where swim/run sessions are held every Saturday (subject to COVID-19 restrictions).
With its stunning beaches, clear waters, and beautiful hinterland, Caloundra offers the perfect setting for training in triathlon. The Caloundra Triathlon Club provides a supportive and inclusive community for individuals who are passionate about the sport and want to improve their skills while enjoying the company of fellow athletes.
