WSTC Duathlon Series Race 2 : Altona Beach
Race 2 of the Western Suburbs Triathlon Club Duathlon Series is held on the Altona Beach foreshore. The event follows a run, bike and run format with courses that use the Altona foreshore path for the running legs and the full length of the Esplanade for the bike leg. The club operates from the same building as the Altona Surf Life Saving Club near the corner of the Esplanade and Pier Street; registration and bib/timing chip collection take place in the club rooms.
The event offers multiple distance options:
- Sprint: 5km/18km/5km, minimum age 16
- Enticer: 3km/12km/3km, minimum age 14
- Dash: 2km/6km/2km, minimum age 12
Entry fees vary by membership category with WSTC members having lower rates and separate junior rates for under 18 competitors. On-the-day entries are accepted at the club rooms where payments by cash or card are available and a waiver must be completed and signed. Race briefings are held shortly before each event and will cover course details and safety information. Club members are expected to volunteer at least once during the season; members may appoint a substitute to fulfil this obligation. Infrastructure work on the Altona Foreshore may require course or lap changes; any such changes will be advised before the event. Event photographs are normally uploaded after the race and results are usually published the same afternoon. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
