Mainstone, who won the race last year, finished in 1:53:35.6 just behind Frenchman Romain Beraud (1:53:35.5). Mainstone, who is coached by Mel Tantrum at UWA Uniswim, was closely followed by fellow West Australian Simon Huitenga, who improved on his ninth placing last year, finishing fourth in 1:53:35.7.
