Emma Carney
}} Emma Elizabeth Carney (born 29 July 1971) is an Australian former professional triathlete and two time World Triathlon Champion. Emma is a World Triathlon (ITU) (2014) and Triathlon Australia (2012) Hall of Fame inductee. She is one of the few triathletes in the world to have won two ITU world titles.〔 She was the world number one triathlete according to ITU rankings in 1995, 1996 and 1997,〔 and achieved 19 World Cup wins, more than any other triathlete except Vanessa Fernandes.〔 With seven wins in 1996, she also holds the record for the greatest number of ITU World Series wins in a single season.〔 ==Early life== Carney was born in England, but moved with her family to Australia at an early age.〔 Carney began her sporting life as a runner: when she was in grade four, she was the only girl to win a medal in the school cross-country mixed race. As a teenager Carney remembers jogging after school everyday. "From that time on there has hardly been a day when I haven't trained", she said. At 13 she set a Victorian record in her 3,000 m debut, and at 18 she was winning national school titles. She wanted to go to the Olympics, but realised she wasn't going to hit her peak as a middle-distance athlete until her late 20s. She reached the finals in the under-20 national championships in the 1,500 m and 3,000 m. As she thought running for another 10 years would be "boring", she decided instead to do some cross-training and triathlons.〔
