Jade was motivated to start tri after cheering on her sister and brother-in-law, and her first race was the London Triathlon super sprint in 2018. Having thoroughly enjoyed it - "especially the finish line" - Jade completed the sprint in 2021.
"I loved this year's London Triathlon (the 2024 event, now called Challenge London, takes place on 28 July). Doubling up on my world record distance was super tough and I really had to dig deep to get to the finish. It's a fantastic event and perfect for an athlete with a disability as all three disciplines are in safe and controlled environments, meaning that you can just focus on your race."
"The support I get from my fellow triathletes and supporters really does warm my heart. Triathlon is a sport that when I'm on the start line, wetsuit and goggles on, I just feel the same as everyone else around me. I'm not being judged and just feel like a normal person."
