Huge European duathlon medal haul for GB Age-Group Team

Published:

Eighty-nine medals were won by the Great Britain Age-Group Team, along with an elite U23 silver medal for Simon Davis at the 2023 European Duathlon Championships in Venice-Caorle.

A team of 300 British Triathlon members represented the GB Age-Group Team over the run, bike, run format of sprint and standard duathlon, returning from Italy with 35 golds, 28 silvers and 26 bronze medals.

Lucy Marland was one of 35 European champions to win gold for the GB Age-Group Team as she not only claimed the 35-39 age group title on her international debut but also the overall race victory in the sprint duathlon.

There are opportunities throughout the year for British Triathlon members to qualify to represent the GB Age-Group Team at World and European Championships in a variety of swim, bike, run disciplines and distances. More information about how to qualify can be found here.

In the elite races in Italy, Simon Davis was the second U23 athlete to finish in the men’s elite race, to add European U23 silver to the bronze medal he won at the World Duathlon Championships last year. Hugo Milner was the top-ranked Brit in the men’s elite race, finishing eighth, as he was joined in the top-20 by Davis (11th), Matthew Nelson (17th) and

Claudia Kelsall (11th) and Nicole Allan (17th) both finished in the top-20 in the women’s race, while in the men’s junior race Will Bloom crossed the line in 16th.
