Bronze for Hollie Elliott in Tam Chuc
Hollie Elliot earned her first medal of the season at the Asia Triathlon Cup Tam Chuc on Saturday, 16th May.
In the mix throughout, Elliottt posted one of the fastest run splits of the day to seal her spot on the podium. The race was won by Ayame Hayashi from Japan, with Australia’s Briana Mow coming in second, just two second ahead of Hollie Elliott.
With Olympic Qualification now in view this result signals a strong start for Elliott, as Triathlon Ireland Performance Director Gary Ryan outlines:
“Wonderful to see Hollie early season getting on the podium in Vietnam and making a significant jump in the World Rankings up to 126. That positions her well to get the race starts she needs to begin her qualifying campaign for LA which opens shortly.”
