We’re incredibly proud to sponsor our colleague and friend, Commercial Placement Manager Alison Waters ACII, as she competes at the European Long Distance Triathlon Championships this September 🏊🚲🏃♀️.

True to her nature, Alison then tackled the Outlaw triathlon, conquering a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride, and 26.2-mile run in an impressive 13 hours and 42 minutes. Her dedication, perseverance, and sheer determination are truly inspiring.
