Good stalking guys, I hadn’t seen that finish photo yet.
Yep a brilliant day, my best race in Aus/ever (other than maybe IMUK)
T1 was 450m if that justifies it (although I could have better getting wetsuit off and getting socks on compared to the ITU pros) hence my overall placing not that bad in a big field. T2 around 250m.
Most happy with that bike split considering 350m elevation across 40km and 3 dead turns round cones at each end.
Beaten by two people in a different class to me. Winner ran 31:53, second place biked 59:17.
ETA: Did come in 9 minutes ahead of Sarah Crowley though, and 4 minutes ahead of a “full time professional triathlete” who judging by today’s results is better at being an instagram influencer than backing up his words. Or swimming.
