An Athletic Family
The Spiranac family is an athletic clan, so it was a given that she was going to take the same path. Her dad played football for the University of Pittsburgh and even brought home an NCAA title. Her mom, on the other hand, was a professional ballerina. Lexie, her older sister, used to sprint at Stanford University.
She Faced Many Medical Issues
When she was still young, she suffered a number of medical problems. She had a hair issue, allergies, and severe asthma. Those issues did not just hinder her progress but also made her a target for bullies.
