Biography

[edit]

Anggie Avegno was born on 8 June 1996 in Guayaquil, Ecuador.[1] She took an interest in canoeing after watching observing a group of people canoeing in the Good Friday Park in the south of Guayaquil with her parents.[2] She studied at the College of Santa María de los Ángeles.[1]

In 2012, under the direction of Ossian Frydson, Avegno placed 4th in boating in the World Cup,[which?] in that year held in Russia.[2] That same year, she became Pan-American and Junior World boating champion.[3]

In 2013, she became the junior vice-world champion and won two bronze medals at the World Cups in Hungary and the Czech Republic in 2013 and a gold medal at the 2013 Bolivarian Games in canoeing. The next year, Avegno won the South American championship in C-1200 meters, beating Chilean Nancy Millán and Valdenise Conceição of Brazil for the gold medal with a time of 47 seconds and 351 thousandths in the X Games held in Santiago, Chile.[3] On 20 July of that year, she won the silver medal at the U-23 World Canoe Championship in Hungary.[4]

In April 2015, Avegno obtained one of each type of medal at the South American Rafting competition held at the Yawarkucha in Ecuador. She won a gold medal in the Under 21 category of the C1-1000 meters category (5 min. 11.09 sec.), silver in C1-500 meters (2 min. 27.56 sec.), and bronze in C2-500 meters (2 min. 6.43 sec.) with Mía Friend.[5]

Avegno and Friend would also win gold medals in C2-500 meters at the 2015 World Cup in Boulogne.[6]
