Performance Assessments Open 2024 British Triathlon Super Series

The British Triathlon Super Series got under way for Youth, Junior and Senior athletes across two days in Nottingham and at Prestwold Hall Racetrack. Triathletes completed the swim leg on Saturday 20 April at the University of Nottingham swimming pool. The following day they completed the bike and run legs with each race operating a staggered start based on the swim times from the day before. The winner of each race was the first triathlete across the finish line. 

Take a look at who was on the podium across each category below.  

Youth A 

In the Female Youth A Category Hannah Painter was first across the line, despite starting 22nd following Saturday’s swim, with the fastest bike time of the race securing her the win.  

Megumi Hoshiko finished second and joined Painter on a charge through the field, setting the fastest run time of anyone as she came from 24th to get onto the podium.  The top three was completed by Isabel Moore, who after starting 12th, was just one second behind Hoshiko in a sprint finish.  

In the Open Youth A race Sam Redmond out-sprinted Ruben Price, as the pair put in almost identical run times to come first and second after they started the Sunday in 21st and 15th respectively. Archie Enstone ended the race in third, putting in the second fastest bike time of the race to move up from 24th at the start of day two.
