What a way to close out the year!!!
Congrats Cristine! We couldn’t be more proud to give you the title of
STUDENT OF THE MONTH
for December. You’ve been working hard, and consistently – and it shows! You’re an inspiration to those around you and you know how to bring out the best in your workout partners! Keep it up!
What’s even more amazing, is to see how far Cristine has come…
In 1995, at the tender age of 3, Cristine suffered a stroke when the surgeon who was operating to remove a tumor near her optic nerve cut a major artery to her brain. After the operation, Cristine could not speak or walk, and lost all movement on her right side. At the age of 11, she was still dragging her right foot when walking and could not move her right hand. Fast forward to 15 years later – Cristine is training alongside the best of them! She’s running 5K races, lifting weights and tackling all kinds of physical challenges we throw her way. She never says, “I can’t”. She loves to prove everyone wrong and continuously works to be a better athlete. Cristine, we are so honored to have you as part of the WOFB family.
