Thursday - 16h30 (updated 21h50)
Withdrawn
- Adventure World Magazine
- Buff Coolmax
- 4TC - two members have withdrawn, two (Danielle and Lian) are continuing with other teams
- uge.Cyanosis (as of Tues afternoon)
There is a race ruling that there must be at least 3 people in a team (no pairs for safety reasons). Many teams who are losing members are joining with other teams to continue.
Second placed team, Cyanosis, is likely to withdraw; team member Eugene Botha has just been rescued after experiencing extreme breathing difficulty just 2km out of the Mazeppa Bay transition. He has been unwell for a few days. We do not yet know whether the other team members are going to continue.

- Nuhales (dunno?)
