Say "hi!" to Mallory, and join us in celebrating Essentia Health’s very first Certified Acute Virtual Registered Nurse 🎉

“It takes more thought to challenge her than it [does] somebody else,” says Essentia Health's Joe Heinz, DPT.

Heinz, who's attended Kelly Krapu’s CrossFit classes for several years, doesn’t normally work with stroke survivors but jumped at the chance to help her through rehab.

After suffering a stroke nine weeks ago, Kelly Krapu is back at CrossFit Detroit Lakes: coaching, training and rebuilding her strength.
