Catharine Pendrel discovered mountain biking at sixteen after years of horseback riding and quickly set her sights on representing Canada. Moving from the East Coast to Victoria, she trained at the University of Victoria while earning a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Sociology.
A four-time Olympian, Catharine captured a Bronze medal in Mountain Biking at the Rio 2016 Olympics, rebounding from an early crash to reach the podium. She also competed at the 2008 Beijing, 2012 London, and 2020 Tokyo Olympics, entering London as the reigning World Champion. Over her storied career, she won three overall World Cup titles (2010, 2012, 2016), Gold at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, and Pan Am Games medals (Gold 2007, Silver 2015). Known for her resilience, she repeatedly overcame injuries to remain among the world’s best. Beyond racing, Catharine founded Pendrel Racing, serves on the People in Motion Board, and supports youth cycling through the Kamloops Bike Riders Association.
