A small contingent went to Bribie Island to compete. In the Sprint Distance Jake Hynes exited the water in front fine tuning for Noosa Tri in 2 weeks. He lost some time on the bike and finished off strongly on the run for 3rd OPEN Male. Jessica Lee (35-39) and Jade Ingram (Athena) both landed on the podium with a 3rd place each. While in the Short Course, the ever consistent Marilyn Shrapnel took line honours in the 70-74 Female

At Challenge Mallorca over the half distance saw Marion Tuin back racing in the Professional Female. A rough swim as met when the gun went. Once out of the water Marion had  a solid day on the bike and run to finish 12th
