As well as an Elite Bronze medal on Saturday from Alice Hector at the Viborg ETU Powerman Middle Distance Duathlon European Championships, a team of 36 Great Britain Age-Group athletes had travelled to Denmark to race over the 10km run / 60km bike / 10km run Powerman format. After Copenhagen (2016) and Vejle (2018), this was the third time in four years that Denmark had hosted this championship.

Among the medallists, Hester Barsham-Rolfe (F35-39) defended the Gold medal she won 12 months ago, the medal total coming to 12, of which four were Gold.

Here’s the summary of the fastest GB athletes overall and the full medal listing from Viborg.
