    Ainsley Thorpe's ready to erase the disappointment of her debut Olympics


    The Kiwi triathlete's been named in the team for Paris - having crashed on the bike leg and being forced to retire in her debut Games in Tokyo.

    Thorpe's been working on the top two inches - as much as swimming, cycling and running ...



    Thorpe's joined in the women's race by fellow Tokyo Olympian Nicole van der Kaay.

    Tokyo bronze medallist Hayden Wilde and Olympic debutant Dylan McCullough will compete in the men's event.
