Aston Key has followed up his sensational win in the JWOC Sprint event with an equally impressive 3rd place in the Long Distance event.

Aston covered the 10km course (with 625m of climb) in 67m49s, just 5m30s behind last year’s defending champion from Norway, Kasper Fosser.

Unfortunately, Alastair George (Big Foot) mispunched while Garingal's Duncan Currie was 135th in 98m59s.

Our recent scholar Grace Molloy from Scotland made it two bronze medals in a row in the women's Long, finishing just 31 seconds behind joint winners Ida Haapala (Finland) and Veronika Kalinina (Russia) who had her time adjusted after her SI Air stick stopped working.

Once again, well done Aston. A fantastic performance! Tuesday is a rest day.
