Andrea started with Belpark’s New-to-Tri programme in April 2022 and was hooked straight away. A broken thumb from playing tag rugby limited her racing in that first season, but in 2023 she raced as often as she could, and that experience really helped her to improve. She loved meeting other members and watching the top performers in awe, and found everyone helpful and welcoming.
To take her performance to the next level, Andrea started working with her first coach, Tiago, at Endurance Lab. Working full time, she found that having a coach took the thinking out of what to do. The sessions slowly built her engine, and she started to see the results on race day.
Her proudest achievement so far is the Jailbreak Standard – her first ever triathlon podium, earned in tough conditions. She is also very proud of her first sprint podium, a race in which she felt strong and finished not far behind the top two.
Keep racing and keep achieving.
