Maggie’s Ironman Success

A former Whitsunday Anglican School student has found success in the Ironman Cairns Asia-Pacific Championship.

Maggie Monckton, part of the class of 2016, took out the 18 - 24 age group at the Ironman 70.3 (Half Ironman) with a time of 4:56:19.

She has also qualified for the World Triathlon Championships to take place in Germany.

These achievements come all while Maggie completes her study, currently in her 5th year of a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery at JCU in Townsville.
