First One!

Hi,

This is my first blog so I will give you a bit of a bio to start.

My name is Shane Barrie. I am 21 years old. I have been a triathlete now for 18 months after crossing over from surf life saving to join the National Talented Identification and Development program which was formed by the Australian Sports Commission in conjunction with Triathlon Australia.

I was born in Wollongong and luckily enough have the NSWIS triathlon squad based in Wollongong so I have awesome training partners and we are all under the guidance of Jamie Turner. I have recently been given a scholarship for the NSW Institute of Sport for Triathlon which gives me heaps of benefits. I would like to thank NSWIS for their support to me so far.

I recently gained selection in Triathlon Australia's 'Young Guns' Tour for Asia/Europe in July which I am very excited about! I will be racing in Japan then to Italy for a camp then a race in Ireland. Following this tour I will stay in Vittoria, Spain for 4-5weeks training with Jamie and some other athletes.

I will post my race schedule and other details very soon. Hope you enjoyed my first post!

Ciao!
