In her first European Championships and only her second race at the distance, Moss completed the 1500m open water swim, 42k bike and 10k run in 2hr 22min 7sec to finish behind fellow Brit Jo Phillips in the 40-44 age category.

“Coming home with a silver medal from my first European Championships is beyond any expectations I had for the race,” said Moss.
