35 Medals for the GB Sprint Distance Team in Rotterdam

Well, that was a rather good day for the GB Sprint Distance athletes in Rotterdam. 13 Gold medals, from a total of 35 Sprint Distance podium finishes.

Jacqui Phillips (50-54) and Barbara Holmes (55-59) both retained titles won 12 months ago in Cozumel, while the familiar name of Richard Stannard made his Age-Group debut – and won the 40-44 division.

Check out the full list of medallists below. A total of 35 Sprint Distance medals was even bigger than the 29 podiums achieved at the Hyde Park World Championships in 2013. Check out the full analysis of that too, below.
