by
Taren Gesell

Laura Siddall (Sidd) is a top pro Ironman distance triathlete who is a multiple long course triathlon champion.  Laura Siddall had a phenomenal 2017 season of triathlon racing, concentrating largely on the Challenge Family of triathlon races winning multiple times and finishing second in the Challenge European points rankings, she also placed second in Ironman New Zealand and eventually finished 15th at the 2017 Ironman World Championships.
