    Stepping off the plane in North Queensland was a shock to the system for kiwi triathlete Mike Phillips

    Stepping off the plane in North Queensland was a shock to the system for kiwi triathlete Mike Phillips


    The 2019 Ironman New Zealand champion will be on the start line for Sunday's Ironman Cairns.

    He says after training in a very cold Christchurch in recent times, he's needed to reacclimatize.



    Other kiwi pros competing include Mike's brother Ben Phillips, veteran Cameron Brown, defending champion Amelia Watkinson and Rebecca Clarke.
