Entries for the 25th Taylors Nelson Women's Triathlon open today with online entry capability at http://nelsonevents.co.nz/content/taylors-nelson-womens-triathlon
The 500 participant limit is expected to fill quickly so women keen to be in Nelson’s iconic event are encouraged to enter promptly. Over the past 24 years more than six thousand local women have completed the distance, designed slightly different to conventional triathlon due to the pool finish but still encompassing the same disciplines.
Earlier today Race Organiser Averil West and Principal Sponsor Craig Taylor, of Taylors we love shoes unveiled the new event logo released to mark the significant milestone of 25 years. West said ' Not a lot has changed since the triathlon began in 1988 – we’ve tinkered with little things when we thought we could do it better and changed the course to provide a safer environment but something we really wanted to do this year was create a new logo. The old one was ‘feeling' a bit dated we needed something conveying freshness, energy and vibrancy whilst remaining welcoming . I’m really thrilled with what our design team with Dean Raybould has created and judging by the feedback from the women we ‘trialled’ it with I think it’s going to be well received and will look particularly attractive on the event merchandise.’
