Secondo successo in sette giorni in gare Ironman 70.3 (1.9-90-21.1K) per Joanna Lawn: la neozelandese, dopo il successo di settimana scorsa a Port Macquarie, Australia, si è imposta il 7 maggio anche nell’Ironman 70.3 Western Australia di Busselton.

La trentasettene, sette volte vincitrice dell’Ironman New Zealand, ha anche fatto segnare il record del percorso e il miglior split nella mezza maratona, corsa in 1:22:57.

Sul podio con lei sono salite le australiane Rebekah Keat e Belinda Granger, uscita per seconda da T2 dietro Elly Franks, poi quarta al traguardo.

Tra gli uomini, poker australiano con Tim Berkel che con l’1:13:48 nei 21K finali risale dalla sesta alla prima posizione, seguito da Matty White e Tim Reed; quarto Rix, quindi i due kiwi Whyte e Crawford.
