“Technically, I was Chris’s guide, but he helped guide me to open my eyes and my heart out there on that course…it was definitely one of the top 10 most amazing experiences of my life!”

“We made history that day…we are opening the door for athletes around-the-world!”

Do you know what it means to be “1% Better” each day?  In this episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Christine opens up about one of the top 10 most amazing experiences of her life!

Chris, who became the first person with Down Syndrome to complete an IRONMAN in 2020, has since become famous around-the-world by starting a movement to prove that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. Along with his dad, Nik, they are out to inspire the globe that anyone can “achieve more with a simple plan…build a 1% better habit” each day. Listen closely as Christine reveals what it was like to spend 3 days living with Chris and three other very special athletes, their guides, and their parents in preparation for the first ever IRONMAN 70.3 with a group of neurodivergent athletes. There was lots of hugging, laughing, smiling, and happy tears throughout the weekend as these four athletes competed and crossed the finish line in Cambridge, Maryland.
