WSTC Triathlon Series Race 4
Race 4 of the Western Suburbs Triathlon Club (WSTC) Triathlon series takes place on the Altona Beach foreshore. The event is a standard triathlon format with a swim, followed by a bike leg along the full length of the Esplanade, and a run along the Altona foreshore path. Multiple event formats and distances are offered for different ages.
Registration is handled in the club rooms at the Altona Surf Life Saving Club building. On-the-day entries are available with cash or card payment and completion of a waiver. Registered competitors collect bibs and timing chips from the club rooms. Race briefings are held shortly before each event to explain course details and safety information.
Age minimums apply by event: Sprint, Enticer, Dash and related aquabike/aquathon variations each have specific minimum ages; for example Dash requires competitors to be at least 10 years old and 10–11 year olds complete a 200m swim. Club members are required to volunteer at least once per season; a substitute may fulfil the duty.
Courses or start/finish locations may be altered due to Altona foreshore infrastructure works; changes will be communicated before the event. Event photographs are uploaded to the club gallery, and results are published on the WSTC website after the event.
