She won bronze at the event last year, before backing that up with gold in the British Masters and silver at the Worlds in South Africa.
But things did not quite go to plan for her in her Under-63kg category this week.
Reeve, who works at a school in Oakworth, could not put up a score in the bench press due to injury, her weakest link of the three disciplines.
That meant she was out of contention for the medals, which was a shame as she had just produced a 122.5kg squat, a personal best, having earlier pulled off efforts of 110kg and 117.5kg.
The Oxenhoper had to be disqualified after being unable to post a bench press score, but fortunately, she was allowed to partake in the final category, the deadlift being the strongest of her three disciplines.
And she did superbly, with a massive personal best of 200kg, having already successfully deadlifted 185kg and 195kg.
For context, that 200kg earned her a gold medal in the discipline, with the next best U63kg deadlift coming from overall winner Noemie Girot, who only managed 180kg, less than any of Reeve’s three efforts.
Afterwards, a proud Reeve posted on social media: “I could have stopped after bombing out of bench and getting a no score.
“But I felt I needed redemption and I had no pain when I tried Deadlifts.
“It took guts and resilience to carry on but I wanted another PB and Deadlift gold which is what I got!!!!”
Reeve also paid tribute to her coach Charlotte Macpherson, of Unified Strength, for her help and support.
