Bike maintanance from one of the best in the business, John Oxenham "The Bike Whisperer".

Junior Coaching

Our Vice President, Brian Harrington, also runs junior coaching.  He is also the current Queensland Schools Triathlon Coach. For most juniors, Brian likes coaching to start at 12 years old - the club believes children younger than 12 should just have fun being kids. Our Club still has short races for Under 10 and Under 12, but training is not necessary (although prior swimming lessons are essential). Some of his sessions are below:

  • Tuesday mornings has a bike/run and transition focus.
    Location: Airport Industrial Estate (Southern Cross Circuit) 5:15am

  • Tuesday afternoon running session.
    Location: All Abilities Park, The Esplanade, Pialba 4:45pm

  • Thursday afternoon has a general fitness and running focus.
    Location: Urangan State High School 4:15pm

  • There is no swimming training run by the club. Instead, members attend one of the Swim Squads run by the Hervey Bay Aquatic Centre, Boundary Road.

For further information you can contact Brian ("Harro") at bharr119@eq.edu.au​

Senior Coaching

The club currently has no regular senior coaching, although specific coaching programs are run from time to time. Keep watching the Club Facebook Page

  • Saturday Park Run
    Many of our members choose to join the Park Run (The Pier, Urangan) on Saturday mornings 7:00am and often stay for coffee at Migaloo's Cafe.

  • Funky Friday Splashers
    This combined group of triathletes and swim club members meet at the Hervey Bay Sailing Club at roughly 6:00am (depending on the time of year) for a 2km ocean swim (1km to Ann Street, rest and a chat, 1km back). Coffee follows at Bayaroma Cafe if you have time. See the group Facebook Page for times, chat and news.

  • Saturday Sippers
    Just like the Funky Friday Splashers, but it starts at the Surf Club at 3:30pm Saturday for 1.5km followed by drinks and chat on the deck - an awesome place to view the sunset!
