THE GOOD WOLF
Paralyzed from the waist down in a 2015 accident, competitive Crossfit athlete Mino Solomon shares a raw and powerful look at how he fought against letting that half-a-second define his life...
It would have been easy to share Mino’s journey as a straightforward recovery story: 18 months from his accident he started and completed his MBA. He got 4th in the Crossfit WheelWOD Open. He’s gone skiing, skydiving, and canoeing — which are pretty scary even when you CAN use your legs.
But we wanted to uncover a deeper story by asking a simple question: how?
And it was this question that grounded us, and allowed Mino to share an honest look at the most difficult time of his life in hopes that he could make a difference in someone elses life.
