ELLY FRANKS
Elly Franks
I am from Yamba Northern NSW now living in Melbourne- I am a Triathlete and I enjoy riding and racing bikes.
I come from a Surf Life Saving/Swim background and I once played Rugby Union at State Level.
I do Triathlons because I love the lifestyle and chasing success. Until now I have relied on a little natural ability and have had some relatively good results, but I have now decided to focus more time and energy into training to see how good I can be.
I am in the process of getting some new Giant Bikes which is is very exciting and a great opportunity to be on the best equipment.
The squad I am a part of is called Tribal- a successful squad of all levels basd In Melbourne with approx 200 active members.
Non Triathlon loves are: Surfing (not as much now that Im in Melbourne), music, food, pampering.
If I won lotto I would become........?? A DJ
