Alistair Brownlee, Double Olympic Triathlon Champion, Announces Retirement
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Alistair Brownlee, a double Olympic gold medallist and triathlon icon, announced his retirement from professional racing at the age of 36 years on Thursday. Brownlee and his brother Jonathan transformed Britain into a triathlon powerhouse on the Olympic stage.

Brownlee won the triathlon at the 2012 London Olympics, where Jonathan came third. The elder brother successfully defended his crown in Rio 2016, while his younger sibling went one better with a silver medal. Outside of the Olympics, he captured two world crowns in 2009 and 2011 before winning gold at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Having transitioned to the longer distances, Brownlee had been successful in the half-Ironman circuit and won the Nice event in 2019, finishing second on two occasions at the Half Ironman World Championships. Fighting throughout his career against persistent ankle injuries, he finished third in Sunday’s T100 series finale.

Looking back on his career, Brownlee said, “It feels really right, and I’m happy with it. I want to stay fit and healthy, exploring endurance challenges while remaining part of the sport.”

Renowned for his modesty, Brownlee also gave back from off the track through the Brownlee Foundation, inspiring children to enjoy sport. His legacy, along with Jonathan’s, has solidified Britain’s standing at the pinnacle of triathlon.
