Results: Geelong 70.3 and 2XU Race 6

We had a massive weekend with over 30 athletes racing at two major events. The Ironman crew headed down to Geelong for the 70.3 and claimed 2 World Champs qualifying spots, 4 top 10 finishes and we had 3 first timers over the distance!

It was also the last race of the 2XU Triathlon Series. We had a strong group of racers leading from the front achieving 2 overall race wins, 3 first places and 5 podiums.

Special mention to our two World Champs Qualifiers Aimee Dow and Ifat Perlman Domy! What a huge achievement. It’s great to see both athletes get rewarded for all the hard work they have put into their training and now they’re off to Taupo, New Zealand at the end of the year!

Congratulations to our athletes who made the 2XU Triathlon series podium! Oscar Wootton, Darcy Williams, Carolyn Tonelli and Penny Tomkinson have all been super consistent this season and finished in the top 3 for their respective categories.
