Melbourne 70.3 Results

We've had an unreal week to kick off the 2022-23 racing season with athletes racing in two States and across Asia. We are off to a bang!

Athletes at Melbourne 70.3 had outstanding results, from top 10 finishes to PB splits and PB races. We couldn't be happier for this crew. They've been consistent and dedicated in the lead up to this race and it's paid off big time. Well done everyone, you should be super proud!

The juniors raced the 3k at Meet 1 of the Victorian Milers Club on Thursday night. Another night of PB's and some seriously fast times! It's great to see them progressing well and we're keen to see them running off the bike soon.

Xander Schmitz also had a breakthrough weekend of racing at the Billigence TNSW Pathway Championships. Xander secured his sport in the B final and held his own against a class field of Youth and Junior athletes. We are happy with Xander and his progression over the last 12 months.

A special mention to Maria Hodges who raced the Puerto Princesa 70.3 in the Phillipines. She had a fantastic race finishing 4th in her AG and 7th Female overall!
