Paralympic Silver Medallist a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing
When you’ve won the European Championships for six consecutive seasons, have been a multiple World Champion and won a Paralympic Games Silver medal, what do you do next? For Great Britain Paratriathlete, Lauren Steadman, you take on the challenge of Strictly Come Dancing!
Lauren has been confirmed as one of the 15 contestants for this years series which starts in September – by which time Lauren will be hoping to have reclaimed the PTS 5 World Championship title, having taken Silver in a sprint finish in Rotterdam last year, to current Paralympic champion, Grace Norman (USA).
Couldn’t be more excited to be a contestant on this years @bbcstrictly 💃🏻 The next few weeks will all be about the World Champs in Australia but then I’ll be back and ready to go! #Strictly https://t.co/mR87DMAYOx
