The Unbeatable Anna Blyth


Anna Blyth delighted the record breaking crowd at Revolution 14 when she won the Women's Sprint Omnium in emphatic style.

Blyth recorded a new British Junior Record of 11.590 seconds to easily outclass second placed Sandie Clair of France who recorded 12.229 seconds.

In the Match Sprints Anna was paired against German Charleen Delev and Elise Van Hage of Holland.

Blyth led from the front and easily made it through to the second round, where she produced a superb sprint to enable her to cross the line with her arms in the air whilst Anouk Ligthart and Hannah Welte were left trailing behind.

In the most mouth-watering clash of the night; round three of the Sprint Omnium saw Blyth face her fellow Brit Lucy Ayres and France's Sandie Clair.

However, yet again Anna had no problem in sprinting to victory and consequently claimed the Omnium in style.
