Christian said, “She literally murdered it. I was so convinced the race was going to crush her. I wanted to prove to her that it’s tougher than she thought.”

“I don’t want to play video games. I don’t want to do things to make life easier. I want to be comfortable being uncomfortable. I have one body and it’s all I want and all I love,” said the 9-year-old.

“I don’t get bullied anymore. I know how to stand up for myself now. And I love what I do. I want to do it forever.”
