In what will be her third Paralympics representing GBR, Lauren Steadman commented: “I feel honoured to be flying the British colours! Paratriathlon makes its debut at the Rio Paralympics and I’m excited to experience the games in a new sport alongside my teammates. We are a strong team and it will be great to get out there and bring home that medal that I’ve trained so relentlessly for!”
PT2 hopeful Andy Lewis said:
“I’m absolutely honoured to represent ParalympicsGB in Rio. I’ve only been doing triathlon for two years and started quite late, but I’ve put absolutely everything into it and given it my all and the hard work has paid off now I’ve been selected.
“To be there and be part of history as triathlon makes its debut at the Games is just amazing. The sport is growing and growing and hopefully Rio will help encourage more people to get involved in triathlon.”
Penny Briscoe, chef de mission for ParalympicsGB, said:
“Paratriathlon is a new sport for Rio 2016 and I think it will be thoroughly embraced by the crowds out in Rio: with such an iconic location at Copacabana and a combination of water sport and outdoor competition, I think this is going to be a fan favourite with the Brazilians!”
Jonathon Riall, team leader and head coach for paratriathlon, said:
