Without a doubt, these Games have marked my life in a unique way,” she begins in her post. “Every effort, every tear, every challenge I overcame to experience this moment was worth it. It was already written in God’s notebook, I just needed to follow His path. And I succeeded! None of this would be possible without my family, my team, and all of you. Simply… THANK YOU!” Lorrane concludes.
