Kristina Vogel on being paralysed four months after cycling world title win

Kristina Vogel, one of the world’s very best female track
cyclists, won her record-breaking 11th title at the 2018 UCI
Track Cycling World Championships.


Four months later, she was paralysed and in a wheelchair.


A junior Dutch cyclist was practising standing starts when Vogel
crashed into him at full speed.


The double Olympic champion feels no resentment.


“I don’t need to forgive (the person because) I have no anger
about him.”


She doesn’t know if her family feels the same.


“I have never asked them if they have forgiven him… I am scared
to question that.”


The 28-year-old talked about her life-changing accident,
acceptance and forgiveness.
