Elizabeth Holden (UAE Team ADQ) captured the national championships title in the elite women's time trial at the British Road Championships on Wednesday.
"I'm super happy with this win, it feels a bit surreal at the moment. I’ve been on the podium before, so this was a goal of mine coming into this season. I worked really hard alongside the team to focus on my position and everything TT related, so it’s really nice to see the hard work paying off! I will be very proud to show off this jersey, that’s for sure," Holden said.
Holden covered the 27.4km route at Croft Circuit, which was raced across two laps, in a winning time of 37:02 at an average speed of 44.392 km/h to secure the title by 14 seconds ahead of runner-up Anna Morris and 16 seconds ahead of Elinor Barker (Uno-X Pro Cycling).
