Senior Youth & Junior
Eton Eliminator Results and Rankings Update
The Super Series moved on last weekend to Eton Dorney, for one of the most intense and exciting races of the series, the Eton Eliminator.
For Youth B, Junior and Senior athletes, races consisted of a 350m swim, a 4.8km bike ride and a 1.5km run. All athletes competed in Heats to determine the wave they raced in for the opening round of the finals and then athletes competed over three rounds, with slower competitors eliminated after each round. The order of the disciplines changed after each round, with the winner being the first athlete to cross the line at the end of round three.
Senior Female Results
The senior female final race was incredibly tight, with first and second place finishers given the same time. Lara Atkinson took the win, just ahead of Super Series Insider Millie Breese who picked up the silver medal. Jasmine Cooper finished seven seconds back in third place.
Series Rankings
Ahead of the Grand Final on 7 September, Millie Breese now leads the overall rankings with 2162 points, 340 points ahead of Jasmine Cooper in second place with 1822 points. Rounding out the current podium is Jessica Fullagar with 1485 points. Millie is already guaranteed a top two finish and will take the win if she finishes first or second in Bala.
