Britain's Non Stanford won triathlon gold at the European Championships in possibly her final major competition.

The Welsh 2013 world champion finished ahead of German Laura Lindemann and France's Emma Lombardi in Munich.

Stanford, 33, has said she will retire this season. She helped Wales to silver in the mixed triathlon relay at the Commonwealth Games a fortnight ago.

GB's Sophie Alden led after the opening swim, but suffered a nasty crash early in the bike ride.

Stanford was seven seconds down on the leaders at the end of lap one of the final run, but surged back for a brilliant victory.
