PACTRAC’s Goodale sisters tasted more glory at the Belvoir Castle Multi-Sports festival.

Phoebe Goodale competed in the Super-Sprint Triathlon and took an early lead in the swim, held her own on the bike and, helped by some fast transitions, pulled further ahead on the run to win by 3:40 minutes.

Ophelia Goodale was second out of the water, but with a fast transition she was first out on the bike and took a good lead going into the run to take the win in the TriStar2 event.

Byron Stother came third in the TriStar1 event, missing out on second place due to a technical difficulty with his wetsuit.

Hugo Flikweert finished sixth in his age group in the Tristar 3 event.

In the senior events, Phil Groves (middle distance) and Darren Coley (SprintPlus) both finished 11th overall and fourth in their respective age groups.

Amy Mellor came fourth overall in the 5km swim, choosing not to wear a wetsuit for the event which covered 10 laps of the lake. She finished in 86.42.
