This will be Misty’s first Special Olympics World Games, though she has coached teams to medal wins in other competitions. She says it is so special to see an athlete that you have coached on the podium. It is these moments that keep her coming back. It has been a lifelong dream to attend a World Games to represent her country and support the athletes.
