Stuart Hayes came away from Malaysia with his first ever Ironman 70.3 podium finish in a time of 4:01:10 in what was a talented field featuring the race winner Craig Alexander and second placed athlete Josh Amberger.

Liz Blatchford was also kicking off her season in style, with a 2nd place performance in a similarly strong womens field.

Blatchford will hope that this will be a platform to push on for the big Kona win she has been dreaming off and has come so close to in recent years.
