Rachel Klamer has spent the last decade as one of the most consistent performers on the world stage. Despite not even starting triathlon until she was 17-years-old, the Dutch star has more than made up for lost time with a reputation as an ultra-reliable athlete with multiple podiums to her name, including five in seven Super League appearances. Rachel, born in Harare, Zimbabwe, wasn’t without elements of triathlon as a youngster as she grew up competing in swimming and running, but it was when she added the element of biking that she really felt at home.
In 2008, her first year in triathlon, Rachel won the Dutch Junior titles in both triathlon and duathlon and a year later was second at the European Junior Championships and third at the Worlds. Aged just 18, and after next to no time in the sport, she was already competing at an elite level and took a gold medal at a European Cup event in Alanya to really get noticed.
There followed a decade of sustained success, mixing it with the very best in the world. Some highlights include a silver medal in the inaugural European Games in Baku, Azerbaijan, and a victory at WTS Abu Dhabi in 2018. In addition, Rachel has appeared at two Olympic Games for the Netherlands – London 2012 and Rio 2016.
Her Super League Triathlon pedigree is also unquestionable. In 2018 she had three top-four finishes to end the season as runner-up in the Championship Series behind Katie Zaferes. She finished second and third in the two races held in 2019 and took on the first-ever SLT Arena Games in Rotterdam in 2020, where she was runner-up to Jess Learmonth.
Rachel is married to fellow triathlete Richard Murray.
