Race Updates
A massive weekend of racing for the Sunshine Coast Triathlon Academy / Protector Aluminium Athletes and Club Members in action at Queensland Aquathlon Champs and Queensland All Schools Champs at Lake Kawana, Bribie Island Triathlon # 1, Sunshine Coast MTB Festival and Trail Run Australia. Well done to all that competed.
Queensland Aquathlon champs were held under stormy skies, with a storm front rolling thru and having the kids Aquathlon Champs being cancelled due to it. SCTA had 16 representatives walking home with 8 x Wins / 3 x 2nd Place / 3 x 3rd Places - 14 on the podium. State Champions went to Rebecca Howell (25-29), Rachel James (35-39), Toby Coote (45-49), Gary Turner (70+) and Jayden James (10-13). Silver Medals to Chloe Turner (25-29), Chris George (35-39) and Maureen Cummings (55-59). Filling 3rd spot were Ben Cook (35-39), Martin Anderson (45-49) and Jan Harvey (55-59). Just missing the podium with 4th places Kevin Hammond (40-44) and Ingi Doyle (50-54)
SCTA Club Members both taking line honors, State Champions in their respective categories were former SCTA Junior scholarship Holders Ryan Marsh (16-17) and Ella Wooldridge (18-19). while Taylor Elms State Champion (30-34) and 2nd Overall
Queensland All schools at Lake Kawana saw some cloudy cover from the storms the night before and some light winds on the bike course. It is also a selection race for a few of the regions for the State School Champs to be held at Hervey Bay in February. Some fast and furious racing in amongst all the competitors. These races act as a good build into the rest of the season and allows the athletes to put some measures in place that they will use and learn from in future races. Apart form the Senior Waves, the rest are divided into 2 separate waves so it is always tough understanding where you are in each respective race.
in the Intermediate Female, Sophie Burger (4th) had another solid performance while Ella Crawford (12th) both girls will take a lot from this race that will be put into use in future races while in the Males a relatively new comer to Triathlon, Saul Nicol-Rann (31st) had a strong debut at this event that he will learn from for future races. In the Senior Male Nicholas Morley (19th) had a strong bike / run combo with his swim a work in process at the moment, while in the females, Torah Rose (13th) had a strong swim / cycle combo as she builds her run fitness after arriving from NSW in last school holidays and Jorja Matthews (18th) is slowly building back. In the Junior Male and Female all relatively newcomers raced well and enjoyed the experience that they will learn from and implement into future races with Sam McClarron (36th), Jake Hammond (44th), Tabitha Fraser (56th) and Mackenzie Matthews (64th)
SCTA Club Members in Action included in the Senior Female Erin Wooldridge (4th), In the Intermediate Male Peyton Craig (1st), Ethan Close (2nd) and Callum Close (4th), Intermediate Female Mia Wooldridge (10th) while in the Intermediate Female Grace Brimelow (35th).
