🏊🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️ Rising Tide Squad Senior Members Having a Crack! 💪
A huge shout out to Josh, who took on the Pottsville Triathlon Olympic Distance yesterday. With the swim cancelled due to the wet weather, it became a duathlon, making for a tough and challenging event. In only his second triathlon, Josh powered his way to an impressive 5th place in his age group. Outstanding effort, mate! 👏🔥
Another big congratulations to Tammlynn, who fronted up to Triathlon Pink in some very wet and challenging conditions. Showing plenty of grit and determination, she crossed the line with a fantastic 2nd place in her age group. What a brilliant result! 🏅👏
It’s great to see our senior squad members stepping up, embracing the conditions, and giving it a crack.

It was inspiring to see Rising Tide members giving their best effort and supporting one another throughout the event.

Simple Check Before Your Next Bike Ride

Take 30 seconds to check your tyres before you head out.
✅ Are they inflated properly? ✅ Any cuts or cracks in the rubber? ✅ Any glass or sharp stones embedded in the tyre?

A quick inspection before you ride can help prevent punctures and keep your ride safe and enjoyable.

Not sure what tyre pressure to use?
Start by checking the sidewall of your tyre. You'll find a recommended pressure range printed on the rubber. Still unsure, check with your local bike shop mechanic - .

Rough roads often feel better with slightly lower pressure.
If your tyres feel hard and uncomfortable, they may be over-inflated.
If they feel sluggish or you're getting frequent punctures, pressure may be too low.
Sometimes the simplest habits make the biggest difference.

Sorry about this but I have cancelled run training this afternoon. It’s just too wet to be a valuable session!

Early days with this one, chapter 4. This is a good book for beginners or someone contemplating starting running. This is a great book to remind the coach to meet the athlete where they are now, not where they were once upon a time and not where they want to be in the future! It mandates the need for transparency and total honesty to have a successful coach-athlete relationship. ✅

One of the best parts of Rising Tide is the mix of athletes — juniors, parents, beginners, seasoned racers — all training side by side and cheering each other on. It’s the kind of environment where you can push hard, laugh often, and finish every session feeling better than when you arrived.

If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, come be part of it. Your first two sessions are on us, and we’ll make sure you feel at home from the moment you arrive.

Love a great adventure! Stay fit, explore the world around you, love life!

Meet Britta:

Britta is coming to run the Long Course (Karri) at Run Bibbulmun Track Stage Race this month – a 107km trail running endeavour over 3 days.

But...

While Run Bib is considered as a BIG athletic goal by most people, it’s only the second part of a much larger adventure for Britta. That's because, this wild woman is riding over 950km of the Munda Biddi Trail just to get to the start line!

Here’s what she says about the trip:

"I'm a runner, but I'm also a cyclist, skier, swimmer and general adventurer. My favourite trips include at least one of the above but even better if it's more than one!"

"My partner Bill and I have been wanting to do the Munda biddi trail for years- the cycling equivalent of the Bibbulum, an off-road route running from Perth to Albany. We've done quite a few bikepacking trips including the Tour Aotearoa, Vic Divide and San Juan Huts in Colorado- plus various circuits straight from our own front door- and it's our favourite way to travel. "

"Life at home is always busy and this is a way to simplify: ride, eat, sleep, repeat- plus see some amazing places in a way that so much more immersive than most means of travel. And we hear there are some good pubs along the way!"

"I've been doing quite a few running races over the past few years, following on from my 100 mile Alpine Challenge in 2025- and Run Bibbulum looks like a lot of fun, so I decided to try pulling it all together."

"I'm not sure if cycling 1000km is the best way to taper for a running race, but I know I'll be feeling mentally refreshed and hopefully I can survive."

Suffice to say, Britta sounds like she has life figured out: Simplify to relax; hardship = happiness; and nothing beats a good pub after a long day on the bike!

Can’t wait to meet you on the 23rd Britta.

Happy riding,

The (in awe) Rapid Ascent Team

𝐏.𝐒. Britta is looking to car pool with other runners at Run Bibbulmun (she will only have a bike!). Let us know if you’re running and happy to share a ride.
