Lauren Campbell Biography

Lauren Campbell is one of the most popular and richest Triathlete who was born on September 2, 1981 in Vancouver, Canada. Lauren Groves (born September 2, 1981) is a triathlete from Canada, who won the bronze medal at the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Groves qualified for the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and won the bronze medal in the women’s triathlon with a time of 1:59:50, just behind the U.S. triathletes Julie Ertel and Sarah Haskins, who both claimed the gold and silver, respectively. Following her success at the Pan American Games, Groves emerged as a medal contender in the international stage, particularly with the World Cup and the Olympics. She won silver at the 2008 PATCO Pan American Championships in Mazatlan, Mexico, and finished thirteenth at the ITU Triathlon World Cups in Tongyeong, South Korea and Richards Bay, South Africa.

Groves was selected to the national team, along with Carolyn Murray and Kathy Tremblay, for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, and awarded a qualifying place in the women’s triathlon. After finishing second at the Pan American Championships and posting a pair of thirteenth-place finishes on the World Cup circuit, she was in good physical form to compete at the Olympics, yet overcame with knee problems that had plagued her most of the year. In the women’s event, Groves started out as a possibility of a top ten finish, and maintained her pace in the swimming leg. Finishing only in thirty-first place at both the swimming and first transition phase, Groves had moved her way into a small group of competitors chasing the breakaways of the 40-km cycling race, until one of them went down in front of her, and crashed her bike. Unfortunately, she was unable to complete the race, finding herself in an ambulance en route to the hospital, where the medical staff confirmed that she had a fractured radial head in her left elbow. With Groves being injured, her teammates, Murray and Tremblay, finished the event in twenty-ninth and thirty- first place, respectively.

After winning her first title, Groves took a year off from triathlon, following her recovery from a serious physical injury at the world championships, and a prior commitment towards her personal life. In 2011, she returned to the competition and won the bronze medal at both the ITU Sprint Triathlon Oceania Cup, and OTU Sprint Triathlon Oceania Championships in Devonport, Tasmania. In 2012 she earned a ninth-place finish at the ITU Triathlon World Cup in Mooloolaba, Australia, recapturing her success in the international scene, by winning the gold medal at the 2012 ITU Sprint Triathlon Pan American Cup in Bridgetown, Barbados, and claiming her first- ever career World Cup title in Edmonton.

Between 2002 and 2012, Groves took part in 77 triathlon competitions, and had achieved thirty-six top-ten finishes, including eleven medals.
