Paratriathlon Roll of Honour 2016

British Triathlon Paratriathlon success in 2016

The end of one year is always a great chance to look back and reflect, as well as plan ahead to the future.

For the sport of Paratriathlon, 2016 has been a truly histroic year, appearing for the first time on the programme of the Paralympic Games in Rio this summer. While that was the standout event of the year, British Paratriathletes have continued to perform and succeed at the highest levels in major international competition all through 2016. Let’s take a look back at who collected the medals over the past 12 months.

What follows here, is the 2016 Roll of Honour for the Great Britain Elite Paratriathlon Team. Once again, it’s an extensive list covering Triathlon, Duathlon and Aquathlon, at World and European level.

(See previous years: 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015)

I believe this listing is complete, but, if you think any are missing, drop me a line via editor@tri247.com and it will be updated appropriately.
