Tristan Mcdonald continued his dominance of open water swimming with a comfortable win in the mile in an excellent time of 20m14. The ladies mile winner was Molly Fonner in a time of 23m13 which also gave her an overall 4th place.

The 800m male and female winners were Ruan le Roux and Christine Briedenhann respectively.

The achievement of the day went to 6 year old Liam Brinkmann who completed the 800m swim in a time of 39m03. What makes the achievement more impressive is that he swam half of the 800m underwater.

The weekend event also comprised of a 27km fun mountain bike ride and a 7km off road run. Both routes were stunning with great views of both wildlife and the dam. The winner of the multi sport event was Mark Brinkmann.
