East Gippsland Challenge 2019 Results

The 2019 edition was the most competitive in the history of the event, especially in the women's field. The Solo categories were taken out by Nathan Stewart from Newcastle and Elizabeth Dornom from Melbourne. They both took an early lead and while Liz was pushed by her sister Bern all the way and successfully maintained her first position, Nathan had a strong ride and run leg coming into the paddle with a significant advantage but nearly lost it having difficulties to navigate the kayaking leg.  Numerous battles were happening for the 2nd and 3rd position during the course. Angus Rodwell and Josh Roy demonstrated outstanding paddle times and got on the podium racing flat out on the last section of the course.

The relay category was again won by Tandoori Chickens family team of Rob and Felix Davis. In AR Duo category locals Tim Boote and Teagan Boote forming a team East Gippsland Adventure Co dominated all the way to the finish. 

 Jayden Thrush and Cassandra Spencer finished first in Male and Female categories of O-Duathlon race on Sunday.
