Triny Willerton is the founder of the new social movement for cyclist awareness called #itcouldbeme

Triny shares how she got started in triathlon through a fitness group as a mom. She is a very successful age group triathlete and in 2018 she was hopeful that she would qualify for the Ironman World Championship when she was hit by a truck on a training ride.

This is a situation where no cyclist or triathlete wants to find themselves.

Triny shares the story of her accident. Her recovery and her life after the accident. She shares how she learned about the laws that affected her in the event of an accident with a car.

Hearing about a cyclist or a triathlete in an accident is tough. Triny is an amazing person who was inspired to get involved with her local government and changing her local laws. Then she decided to do more by making it her personal mission to help drivers be aware of cyclists and other vulnerable people on the roads.

Triny shares the story of how she became a social activist for cyclists called #itcouldbeme.
