Cristal Garrison
Personal Summary
I recently married my handsome and adorable best friend Mike in Jackson, WY and I have a beautiful
14 year old daughter Kay Leigh who is my pride and joy but may very well be the death of me.
Being raised on the county line of Brown Co. Indiana gave me an appreciation for the outdoors and a
desire to always be out there. Enter the wonderful world of Adventure Racing.
“To have obstacles, injury and laughs is to live.” Same goes for Adventure Racing it just happens at
warp speed.
