My son will be having a lash at the Coral Coast Sprint, but the whole family will be in town for the Challenge week. Should be good.......

I live here in Cairns - was on the waitlist for the half and have managed to get in, my husband is doing the ironman.  The ride to Port Douglas will be special especially as the road is closed.  You will have a great week.

Less than ten weeks to go folks!

 

Don't know about you guys but I can't wait to find out a) if the swim will be wetsuit approved or not, and b) what the merchandise will be!

Last year I didn't swim all year with a wet suit the water was too warm, and so was the weather temperature.  The year before I swam in wetsuit nearly all the time, so you just don't know what the weather is going to do.  We still have extremely hot weather in Cairns and its only 2 months away, I don't think it will be wetsuit.  In winter I swim at Trinity Beach, it will be interesting at Yorkeys as you have to go around a point which is rocks, I hope they have the course well away from these.
