From start to finish, the team led the pack and took just three and a half days to make it back to St Helens.
Tri-Adventure Antelopes consisted of Damon Goerke, Elizabeth Dornom, Tom Chadbourne, and Dave Schloss.
Dornom said there were some “tough, longs legs in this race” such as the trek up Ben Lomond.
The team qualified to compete in the AR World Championships at Reunion Island in November.
XPD Bay of Fires ran from March 17 to 24 through the state’s North.
