Andrea has been involved in the triathlon community as an athlete since she was 18 years old. She has organized the Triathlon of Compassion since 2003, raising money for the Victoria Women’s Sexual Assault Centre. Andrea has organized and coached triathlon groups at the Victoria Y, Juan de Fuca Rec Centre, and through Frontrunners. Her “tri-kids” as she fondly calls them, have all met their goals and remained injury free, while having fun and making new friends.
