57 0 ReplyHoly fuck is that depressing… former Olympian contender who was exiled from her home nation due to her political beliefs… became an Uber driver in Miami and then a food server in Los Vegas, at 50, before she choked to death at her solo apartment and was only found because her place of employment reported her missing. Holy fuck.

Slam down on a chair or countertop if you are choking alone. Make sure you hit your diaphragm. It may save.

15 0 ReplyIt kind of makes a perverse sort of sense. As an athlete (at least of the cyclist sort), you need a huge amount of calories and you also are all about speed. Putting those two together is definitely a risk.
