2014 Olympic skiing, 2014 Olympics, Kris Freeman

manskiingmainA short post, this day, dear reader. I just wanted to bring to the forefront a 2014 U.S.A. Olympian, who fits into our mission here on Brittle.

It is heartwarming to know that there are so many young men and women  pursuing their Olympic dreams, especially while controlling Type I Diabetes.

Kris Freeman is one such person. A gifted and accomplished cross country skier, he has quite literally experienced the ups and downs of skiing while treading that delicate balance of blood sugar levels. He has become a hero to so many children by speaking openly of his condition – as well as a hero to a not-so-young couple who live in a place called the Cutoff.

Thank you, Kris Freeman, for your athleticism and your courage.
