Candice finished with a time of 3 hours, 46 minutes, 36 seconds for the 42.2km full marathon event.

The mother-of-two, who retired from the Nutri-Grain Ironwoman series after meeting and marrying the Australian opening batsman, was eager for a new sporting challenge and so decided to train for the marathon.
