Rachel entered the world of Triathlon from a swimming background, having swum to a national level up to the age of 18. In 2005 at UK Ironman 70.3 she qualified for the World 70.3 Championship and went on to become world champion in her age group (25-29yrs) in 2006.

In 2008 Rachel stepped up to Ironman distance and began racing in the professional ranks where she came 5th at Ironman Florida in a time of 9:37:10 and in 2009 in only her second Ironman Rachel finished on the podium at Ironman South Africa, taking 3rd place in 9:37:00.

Looking forward to the rest of the season Rachel is aiming to qualify for the Ironman World Champs in Hawaii, and plans to race at Ironman Lanzarote in May and then will look to race in some shorter 70.3 distance races over the summer.

Last month we were approached by tri 24/7 with an idea and a challenge. They were looking to secure their product testing team with some of the highest performance equipment available for an extra special product review. The kit would be thoroughly tested in race conditions at the Spec-Savers Ironman South Africa.

The kit was tested by John Franklin who won the 18-24 Age Group by just two minutes and booked his Kona slot. His review was extremely positive and described the Fusion Kit as innovative and an excellent fit, you can read the full review at:
