This week saw a return to racing for Keegan Mitchell and Evan Goad, who haven't raced since last year, along with two long-term absentees Shannon Apps and Brad Armstrong, who returned after a five-year absence.

This week, forty-two competitors took part over the four different categories and were greeted with a warm and heavy westerly wind. This, combined with the uphill efforts on Clifford Street, generally result in slower run times which also makes for some closer finishes. .

The McIntyre twins, Stella and Ava, excelled this week with Stella taking out the Novice Division race (100m/2km) and Ava blitzing the Open 1 field against all comers.

The Open 2 race was once again the most tightly contested race with only five minutes separating first from 12th ,Ryan Croker, Conrad Bullock, Alison Rose, Rebecca Miles and Shannon Apps all showed improvement.

In the long race (600m/6km) it was glamour couple Kurt Warn and Olivia Stutchbury who stood out, Kurt thanks to a sub-24 minute 6km run and Olivia courtesy of a sub-10 minute swim split.

Racing continues every Tuesday night at the Aquatic Centre at 6pm, new members are always welcome and membership and entry can be purchased from the pool at any time.
