Ellie Wins 1st Lady at Shropshire Sprint Triathlon
Wirral Cycle Services’ sponsored rider, Ellie, secured 1st Lady at the Shropshire Sprint Triathlon in Ellesmere.
The event took place in ideal conditions, with the lake swim going ahead after previous years of cancellations due to algal blooms. Ellie stepped down in distance following her recent half ironman in Swansea, completing the sprint race in under an hour and a half.
With three distances running simultaneously, it was difficult to track positions on course. However, Ellie led the women’s field out of T1 and maintained her lead through both the bike and run legs. She crossed the line as the overall first female finisher.
This was her final outing of the year on the road bike. Ellie now switches focus to the TT bike for the closing races of the season.
