TMG was a life force for me this year.  The games inspired me to get back into mental and physical shape so soon after giving birth to my son – Sam Kiritopa Kelly Wall.  With the support of my sponsors, becoming a mother has only strengthened me as an athlete, and the games is the ultimate playing field.  After winning a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place medals, I could fly home proud of my achievements and thankful that I have kayaking in my life.
