ETPA Race Results: Geelong 70.3 and 2XU Race 5

We had another exceptional weekend of racing. Geelong turned on the weather for us and our athletes did not let us down.

Firstly, we’d like to acknowledge our first timers over the 70.3 distance. Congratulations goes to Billy Grogan, Matt Cameron, and Paul Wright. Three champions in the making! 😊

Secondly, a big thumbs up to the hardened podium getters who keep on pushing and epitomise the ETPA spirit of training and racing hard. Kelly Miller, Gary Nicholls and Penny Tomkinson.

Lastly, we wanted to take a moment and recognise the people who just keep getting faster. No fluff, no excuses, just get faster! Mark Deagan, Amanda Thompson and Paul Vallay, you guys are awesome. Big congrats to everyone who toed the start line after a long break from racing in Victoria.

The 2XU series culminated in race 5 of the series today. ETPA again had a solid day out with four podiums and three race wins. Our club finished 4th in the tri club series results which is a fantastic result in a tough, condensed season! Congrats to all the athletes who competed on Sunday and throughout the season in the other races to achieve this result.
