Each Tuesday HPRW produces a small e-mail to remind members of the next weekend's racing and training events. The service is open to anyone and you may elect to be removed from the mailing list at anytime. Your e-mail address will not be made public.

Commonwealth Games - Emma Jackson and Dan Wilson
Congratulations to our Commonweath Games triathlon competitors Emma Jackson and Dan Wilson. Emma was 5th in the women's race, and was with the leading group until just before the end, finishing just 38 seconds behind the winner. Dan gave it everything he had and was in the group chasing the Brownlee brothers and was in contention for bronze but ended up 9th. If you watched the race I'm sure you spotted Mum and Dad Wayne and Kerry in the crowd cheering on Team Oz!
Emma also competed in the relay event and in a thrilling finish the Aussies won a bronze medal.
