OWIA Bobsleigh athlete Bree Walker has continued her great form in the new Olympic sport of monobob, winning back to back events over the weekend in La Plagne, France.
Walker has now won three straight monobob events, having won the last event she entered in at Königssee, Germany, back in mid December.
On day one Walker finished 0.78 seconds ahead of Karlien Sleper of the Netherlands, and on day two the winning margin was a close 0.07 seconds ahead of Andreea Grecu of Romania. On both days Mica McNeill of Great Britain finished in third place.
Sarah Blizzard, who competes as a breakwoman for Walker in the 2-woman bobsleigh event, made her monobob debut, finishing in 14th place on day one, and 11th place on day two.
The final competition of the season for the athletes will be in Lake Placid, NY, USA, with a monobob event scheduled to take place on April 3.
