From the Energy Link Coaching family, we would like to wish you and your family and friends a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS. We hope that 2016 brings good health and many, many happy memories.
Thank you for your friendship, support and for the commitment you give to the Energy Link training philosophy every day. Congratulations everyone ... It has been great to witness the achievements and success from our team in 2015 and we are really looking forward to more great results in 2016.
A huge thank you to super coaches Lew and Waino for being so outstanding at everything they do and for the commitment they have given the whole Energy Link team. We truly value their friendship, time, knowledge and support.
Welcome new Energy Link team members:
A very friendly welcome to our new team members: Nikki Deery who had planned to race Melbourne IM and due to its cancellation will now be racing New Zealand Ironman and Northface 100. Ali O’Toole who’s preparation for Husky LC is on track after consistent training and a great race in Callala, Sally Broom who will be preparing to have a great race in Wollongong Triathlon and then Challenge Bateman’s Bay under the watchful eye of Coach Waino. Cam Dinnie will also be working with Waino and has some great racing ahead for sure at Husky LC, Challenge Batemans Bay and the Sunny Coast World 70.3 Championships next year. Welcome to the talented Jonathan Gormley who will be training for Husky LC and then Port Mac 70.3. Paul Burgess will be training hard towards Scody 3 Peaks Challenge and aiming for a great race at Cairns Ironman. It is great to have Singapore athlete Steven Croft on board as he prepares for an Ironman Triathlon mid 2016. Also Andrew Thurlow had started some formal training with us after his debut at Noosa in November.
