Davison began racing locally in Vermont in 2000, competed in 2 Olympics, achieved two world championship podiums and won 5 national elite titles.

This is the palmares of Lea Davison, one of the longest-lived athletes of the circus. Davison raced for the Specialized Factory Racing team (2011-2016) and later for the Clif Pro Team (2017-2018). Despite two hip surgeries, Davison qualified for her first Olympic Games, London 2012, and then won her first World Championship medal in 2014 just 8 months after surgery.

In 2016, Davison qualified for her second Olympic Games (7th) and took silver at the 2016 World Cup. In short, a great athlete who has not failed to put her hand in many events.
