Finally, she quit smoking and started following a strict and disciplined fitness routine. She came across the CrossFit regime when a fellow soldier showed her a video of women taking on intensive challenges.
She instantly started achieving one milestone after the other until she destroyed every milestone in the renowned CrossFit Challenge.
