Australia Day

It is January 26 and that means today is Australia Day. YOURIRONGUIDE is a huge supporter of Australian athletes, especially those competing in the hardest of one day events - the full Ironman. Today, we celebrate the achievements of Australians around the world in full Ironman events. (We also apologise in advance that we have not included iron distance Challenge family event results and 70.3 results. We fully support these as well but our search engine was not quite up to all results).

The following is a list of any Australian who made a podium position in the last 12 months around the world. Congratulations to all!!
