Young triathlete Kelise Wade laid down a dominant marker ahead of the 2026 International Youth Championships by storming to victory at the Stampone O’Brien Dilsheimer Holloway Women’s Philadelphia Super Sprint Triathlon.
Wade delivered a masterclass in multi-discipline execution across Pennsylvania, stopping the clock in a winning overall time of 31 minutes and 30 seconds.
The young athlete set a ferocious pace right out of the blocks, launching her campaign with a blistering 47-second effort in the swim leg before surging through a rapid transition.
She maintained complete control through the cycling phase, navigating the course in 12:44 on the bike, before closing out the win with a measured 15:09 run to secure the top step of the podium.
The clinical performance provides ideal momentum for Wade as she puts the final touches on her preparations. She now heads to Maryland to compete against top international talent at the Youth Championships.
