Sports career

As late as in 2009, Rosindale turned to triathlon and won the British Universities Triathlon Championships.
In 2010, Rosindale placed third at the European U23 Duathlon Championships and second at the U23 World Championships.
In 2011, she placed 25th at the European Elite Championships. At the Mix Relay, however, the British elite triathletes did not take part although they would have achieved an excellent result thanks to the winners of the individual ranking Alistair Brownlee and Jonathan Brownlee, both from Leeds like Rosindale.
In France, Rosindale takes part in the prestigious Club Championship Series Lyonnaise des Eaux.
In 2011, Rosindale represents the club Stade Poitevin. At the opening triathlon in Nice, however, Rosindale did not finish the race, and at the second triathlon in Dunkirk she was not present. Stade Poitevin had to nominate Natalia Shliakhtenko in order to have five triathletes although she was not a member of the club any more and her name did not show in the start lists.
In 2010, Rosindale represented the club Montpellier Agglo Tri and took part in four of the five triathlons of the circuit.
At Dunkirk she placed 29th and was not among the three triathlètes classants l'équipe, but in Paris she placed 8th and thus was among the club's top three, at Tourangeoux she placed 8th again and was among the three triathlètes classants l'équipe.
At the Grand Final in La Baule Rosindale placed 18th and again she was the third of the club's top three.
