With multiple prestigious results across the ITU and a crowd favourite in the Super League, Sophie is on the fast track to becoming a household name in the triathlon community!

To briefly cover her highlights over the last couple of years; in 2017 Sophie won her first global bronze medal in the U23 event at the ITU World Championships in Rotterdam, and a fourth-place finish on the ITU World Triathlon Series in Yokohama. She also finished second to Jess Learmonth at the 2017 ETU European standard distance championships.
