Support Triathlete Aleksei Averchenko's Recovery
On Friday, November 24th, the life of professional triathlete Aleksei Averchenko took an unexpected turn when he was struck by a car while cycling, leaving him with severe injuries. The impact resulted in 8 broken ribs and a spinal fracture, requiring emergency airlift via helicopter and immediate surgery at Stanford Hospital. Unfortunately, the uninsured driver lost his life in the incident. Aleksei is currently in the hospital, fighting to recover from this devastating accident.
Aleksei's passion and dedication to his sport have been the hallmark of his life. His journey as a professional athlete has been his lifelong pursuit, supported by his triathlon team, friends, and loving family in Russia. Just 8 weeks ago he won the Malibu Triathlon- 1st out of over 1,000 individuals. This accident has not only inflicted significant physical trauma but also shaken him emotionally and mentally.
