This is an interview with Yolanda Soryl, the Coordinator of the Christchurch Vegetarian Centre.
OrganicAthlete: What was the inspiration for the Vegan Triathlon?
Yolanda Soryl: A very small group (3) of Christchurch vegans wanted to take part in a local women’s triathlon but we missed the enrolment. So we decided to organise our own triathlon. As we are all vegan, we thought it might be a positive thing for our community to make it an all vegan event. We did and it felt great. More exhilarating than just going in a regular event. And the post tri dinner was the best!
