In 2011, Sheedy-Ryan decided to participate for the first time in a Long Distance race and won the silver medal at Bussleton 70.3 Half Ironman. Sheedy-Ryan also takes part in the prestigious French Club Championship Series "Lyonnaise des Eaux" and represents the club "Stade Poitevin Tri." At Dunkirk (22 May 2011) she placed 14th, at Paris (9 July 2011) 10th, thus being the best female triathlete of her club. Sheedy-Ryan lives in Wembley, a suburb of Perth, and in France. Her coach is Grant Landers. In the five years from 2006 to 2010, Sheedy-Ryan took part in 22 ITU competitions and achieved 10 top ten positions. In 2011, she won two gold medals at the European Cup in Geneva and the Premium European Cup in Banyoles. She also represents Australia in the World Championship Series. The following list is based upon the official ITU rankings and the ITU "Athletes's Profile Page". Unless indicated otherwise, the following events are triathlons (Olympic Distance) and refer to the Elite category.

Stein the Chairman of the Department of Neurobiology & Anatomy at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine, where he is also Professor of Neurology. He is also director of the joint Cognitive Neuroscience PhD Program between Wake Forest University and the University of Bologna in Italy. His research objectives are to understand the neural basis by which the brain is able to integrate information from multiple senses and how the process develops during early life. This process of multisensory integration is highly adaptive. It knits together information from different sensory modalities (e.g., visual, auditory, somatosensory) to allow the brain to associate related environmental cues. It also enhances minimal signals and reduces environmental ambiguity so that events are better detected, localized, and identified. These are essential functions for humans' and animals' normal interaction with the environment. One practical research objective has been to understand how the physiological properties of individual multisensory neurons and the networks in which they are embedded develop these capabilities as a result of early experience.
