Career
Morris was a latecomer to cycling, only taking up the sport while studying medicine at the University of Southampton.[1] She had a breakout year in 2022, earning three medals at the British National Track Championships before going on to represent Wales at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.[2] Morris earned her first global medal when part of the team pursuit squad that took silver at the UCI Track World Championships in October 2022.[3]
She won two golds at the 2024 UCI Track Cycling World Championships in Ballerup, Denmark, taking both the individual[4][5] and team pursuit titles.[6][7]
On February 15, 2025, Morris won the women’s 4000 metre individual pursuit at the European Track Championships, and set a new world record in that event twice that day, by setting a world record time of 4:28.306 in the qualifying ride and then a new world record time of 4:25.874 in the final.[8][9] On February 22, 2025, Morris once again beat her 4000 metre individual pursuit world record, with a new time of 4:24.060, at the national championships.[10]
In October, Morris was part of the team pursuit line-up that won bronze at the 2025 UCI Track Cycling World Championships.[11] She then retained her world title in the individual pursuit.[12] She concluded her championships with a silver medal in the points race.[13]
At the 2026 European Championships in Konya, Morris was a member of the British quartet who won the gold medal in the final of the team pursuit. The team consisting of Morris, Archibald, Knight and Millie Couzens also set a new world record of 4:02.808 in the final against Germany.[14] She secured a further gold medal in the omnium,[15] and then concluded her championships with a silver medal in the madison with Archibald.[16]
