Remember Debi Thomas? You should. She won the US National Championship and the World Championship for Women's ice skating and went on to win the Olympic Bronze medal. All while attending Stanford as a full-time pre-med student. Only the second woman in US history to do so. Her rivalry with Germany's Katarina Witt was named the Battle of the Carmens because they both skated to music from Bizet's opera of that name. She was inducted into the US Skater's Hall of Fame in 2000.
Now she is a physician and was forced to file for bankruptcy because the cost of maintaining a practise was greater than the income the practise provided. She has since gotten back on her feet and wants to bring health care to the people of Appalachia. She is utilizing the Karatbars program to make that desire a reality.
Here's a link so you can read Debi's story for yourself.
If Karatbars is the choice of a woman who studied full-time while building an Olympic career, perhaps you should give Karatbars another look. So here's a link to that, too.
