Paris: Grassroots to Glory

Available for over a year

The Kidderminster triathlete took home silver in Paris, finishing second in the PTS5 women’s individual race, with her family celebrating. Hear from her dad Duncan and sister Ashling as they pop the champagne corks and reflect on two decades of determination, alongside the Worcestershire medallist herself, speaking to Tammy Gooding. Claire began her sporting career in the pool, before moving to the triathlon for the Tokyo 2020 Games. Claire’s partner, Dave Ellis, won gold in the men’s individual triathlon in Paris, too, meaning there’s a lot for the two families to celebrate!
