Australian triathletes Sarah Crowley and Max Neumann are repeat winners at the Ironman Asia Pacific championships in Cairns.
"I was pretty impressed with Radka today, she hung in there for a lot of it. "Usually, I actually go a bit better on the second one, so we just went after another one. It's a good opportunity in Australia at the moment, there's so much racing and it's good to see good competition."

"No, there’s obviously a lot of Kiwis here because I heard a lot of ‘go the Kiwis’. I think it’s great that we’re finally able to open our borders and travel and share each other’s courses and excitement for IRONMAN, it’s awesome," said Mathews. "It was nice to get breeze along the marina, that was really cool, I haven’t run along there before so it’s a great course. "Completely different course which was good, and it’s the variation of coming here and doing this and the decision to do this and it’s a real good build into Kona which we’ve got later in the year with a little bit of humidity so that’s the reason primarily to come here. Enjoyed it, loved the finish line the crowd was just so loud cheering and that was so awesome, the first finish line I’ve actually taken a moment to take it all in." "It’s a pretty hard one coming off Utah, still probably a little bit there and had to dig deep at the end there on the run but all went to plan so it’s good," he said. "It was awesome out there, that esplanade is electric and that’s what brings you home each lap.

"Thank you also to the Cairns Airport, the local community, the council and IRONMAN and everyone for continuing to run this event, it’s definitely the best on the calendar and I just love coming back every year." The run felt very comfortable, and I sort of just paced it and had a plan to run 3:47 pace for the marathon. I was really putting it down on the bike and I couldn’t shake her so amazing first-time effort. I had to hang in there and my legs are pretty sore from Port Mac a few weeks ago but I did the job." "Coming in I dropped off a bit in the last couple of k’s to keep my legs fresh and so I came off the bike pretty fresh and really just stuck to my own plan, sitting at 3:47 pace for a 2:40 marathon and ran 2:41 in the end. I was just patient, if Currie wanted to run 2:36 for an IRONMAN he can take the win but it’s pretty hard to do here in these conditions, so I just stuck to my guns and it worked out."
