Monika Oražem started triathlon in 2004, at the age of 11, and from 2007 on she has regularly taken part in ITU competitions.

Monika Oražem takes part in the prestigious French Club Championship Series Lyonnaise des Eaux representing SAS (Saint Avertin Sports) Tri 37.

At the opening triathlon of the 2011 circuit in Nice (24 April 2011), Oražem placed 10th, in Paris (9 July 2011) 24th, thus proving to be the best female triathlete of her club.

For the experimental relay type Grand Prix triathlon in Tours (28 August 2011) she was consequently chosen as the decisive finalist and solo runner but this time she could not outdo her teammates.

In 2011 Oražem took part in her first Elite competition, i.e. the Mixed Relay at the European Championships in Pontevedra.
