About the program
Hurt Locker Tri is excited to kick off the year with another development program targeted at those looking to do a 70.3 with an option to extend out to a full distance Ironman (22 weeks for Cairns). The program is aligned with Western Sydney 70.3 however will still be appropriate for those doing Big Husky (Standard or 70.3) a few weeks beforehand. 
​
Over the course of the programme, we’ll host three to four face-to-face sessions per week, located in Sydney’s eastern suburbs or down south for longer rides through the Royal National Park and beyond. Our focus is on creating a supportive, fun, and friendly environment where we can all push each other to get the best out of our bodies—while experiencing the camaraderie that comes from sharing the same goal. You’ll be surrounded by like-minded people and a coach who genuinely cares and absolutely loves what she does. I’m incredibly passionate about helping drive your development and showing you that you can achieve hard things—with the right support and guidance.
​
Western Sydney 70.3 is a fantastic first race if you’re new to the distance, or a great option if you’re chasing a PB. Best of all, it’s close enough for your friends and family to come cheer you on!

If you’ve been following us on Instagram, you’ll have seen the incredible time our previous development programme had—and I can’t wait to recreate that magic in 2026​​

If you have not ridden in a group before that is OK! I will run a few extra sessions to help you learn outside of the regular sessions. Safety is number 1 and I will make sure whilst out training we do everything in our control to make the safest environment possible.
