Women Wrestlers

Thanks to the support of Jose Hidalgo, president of the Spanish Triathlon Federation and the entire Board of Directors that makes it up, we can say that today the Commission for Women and Sports is a reality.

Approved in October 2010, with Cristina Azanza, a working woman and elite triathlete at the head and as its president, counting on the unconditional collaboration she receives from Alicia García, General Secretary of the Spanish Triathlon Federation (FETRI), Marisol Casado, President of the International Triathlon Union (ITU) and member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the entire team that forms part of it, we want to present you a place where you can propose new initiatives, ways of thinking and acting, with the aim of promoting the participation of women in sport, and more specifically, in our sport, triathlon.

We are counting on you, our goal is that every day more women can enjoy triathlon and the benefits it brings, as well as involve the greatest number of us in all aspects of physical activity and sport in general.

Ana Burgos is a prime example of this. A member of the Women and Sport Commission, an elite triathlete with numerous national and international podium finishes, and most recently recognized by the Spanish Triathlon Federation as the 2010 duathlon ranking winner, she is now a role model for working women with a sporting career spanning over 30 years. After a transitional season, her goal this year is to qualify for the Olympics and represent Spain. Olympics from London 2012. A true example of a fighting woman.
