WHAT A YEAR it has been for Team PTH! It’s been a record-breaking year for us and we are just getting started! Watch out 2023!
We wish we had the space to list every single achievement in this one post, but we’d be waaay over the limit!
So what have Team PTH been up to in 2022?!
We saw complete beginners join our multisport and running disciplines and watched them train hard towards their goals, and saw them complete their first 5k without stopping, or their first sprint triathlon. We could not be more proud of the progress everyone at our club has made this year.
