Tri-ing and succeeding

The Wild Dog Triathlon Club stepped up its game after hosting the final race of this season's Victorian Regional Tri-Series on Saturday.
A mix of locals and enthusiasts from all over Victoria were in town for the event, which saw competitors swim, cycle and run their way around Warragul.
It was the first time the club have hosted an event as part of the series, which heads to regional towns around the state.
Ninety-four people took up the challenge across both the junior and senior events, including 38 juniors, as racers came from as far as Warrnambool and Torquay.
Aus Triathlon handed out their season awards following the race.
The Warragul Swimming Club was on hand for a barbeque to keep people fed and ready to go.
Wild Dog Triathlon Club official Justin Bersey said "everything went well" on the day.
"For the first time we've done something like this it was very good, everything went according to plan," he said.
The club now hopes to host another series race next year.
