Gold medal-winning wrestling sisters headed to nationals after Pan-Ams

South Surrey siblings Ana and Karla Godinez Gonzalez recently secured top honors at the Pan-American women's wrestling competition held in Mexico and are currently training ahead of the Canadian Wrestling Championships, which begin on May 29 in Edmonton.
Their success follows ongoing intensive training at Bunaby Mountain and Coast Wrestling Clubs, while Karla finds the 55 kg weight class easier to maintain than her previous Olympic 53 kg class due to less restrictive dieting.
Ana, who secured two Senior Pan-Am gold medals and previously won the U23 world title, finished fifth at the Paris Olympics. Although she and Karla compete in separate weight categories, they frequently train together and provide strong mutual support.
Ana mentioned that healthy eating is a normal part of life for her entire family, so she’s accustomed to it, while Karla explained that maintaining her energy in the 55 kg weight category doesn’t require a highly restrictive diet.
The Canadian Wrestling Championships in Edmonton will feature over 600 athletes competing to become national champions and qualify for Canada's national teams, with both sisters aiming to win and qualify for the women's world championships in Croatia this September.
