Introducing TEAM 3 – AUSTRALIA
Also known as the One Water Race 2023 Winners! Coming from a strong adventure racing and endurance background, this team has now shown that they have what it takes to make it to the lighthouse in Landsort, not once, but twice. Far from being complacent, they are continuing to put in the hard work to improve their skills.
We will use our experience in ultra endurance events to balance speed and navigation to ensure we keep on course and keep mistakes to a minimum. Rob’s exceptional navigation skills will be complimented by Elizabeth’s all-round physical strengths and Glenn’s swimming prowess which will allow us to keep moving fast, and in the right direction. Combine this with Julian’s exceptional organizational and tactical knowledge and our whole teams experience, our goal is to be unbeatable.
The 2023 OWR showed I was still able to push through boundaries I didn’t think I could break, and achieve a team result that I am very proud of.

OWR has a unique aura about it. I would love to return to OWR in 2024 to defend our title and be part of the special event once again. And I really want to see a Moose this year! A burger and Landsort Larger at the finish line is pretty appealing too!
