2XU Paddington Ambassador Peter Schokman (Asquith, NSW), posted one of the fastest swim times of the day and ran 1:13 to take out the Capricorn Coast Half Ironman on Sunday.  The impressive victory marked one of Pete’s biggest wins to date and and illustrated his stregnth over both Olympic and Half Ironman distances.

Pete dominated a quality field with the fastest swim and run splits for the race and looks in superb form coming into his next race in Korea this weekend.

As the pre-race favourite, Pete didn’t disappoint with a blistering performance that left him the clear winner by close to 4 minutes.

Nice work Pete!

Chris Marris will attempt a world record breaking effort at the end of this month, aiming to cover 4000 kilometres from Perth to Sydney in only eight days.

In anticipation of the epic plight, Chris is raising money for the Royal Flying Doctor Service and so far has raised $7000.

 

This is one effort that will demand world class Compression garments, so we were more than happy to supply Chris with what he needs to make it from the west to east side of Aus!
