Imploder Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 This news is just so tragic! Double gold olympic medalist paralysed in a training accident. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/sep/07/olympic-champion-cyclist-kristina-vogel-paralysed-after-training-crash
kosmonooit Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 Yeah totally hectic, there she was enjoying a holiday in CT earlier this year. But what she says is commendable: its a totally $h!t situation, but the sooner you accept it, the sooner you can move on and get on with life, and she says she is actually lucky that she can still move her arms.

Bonus Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 Damn - that's a tough break! Good on her for having such a positive attitude. Not sure I would do.
