This week will kick off the 13th anniversary of the Department of Defense’s annual Warrior Games Challenge in San Diego.
Knox has been in the Army for more than 12 years, serving as a signals intelligence analyst. She has also spent 17 years as a union rugby player. She has begun a transition from active duty to the veteran community after sustaining an injury playing rugby. Knox has had a series of seven knee surgeries, with more to potentially come, but that hasn’t stopped her from pursuing her passion.
“The Warrior Games are really important for wounded warriors to feel a part of a team. We are raised on squads and raised on teams," Knox said."The whole Army is a team, the whole [Department of Defense] is a team, when we go out and we operate abroad and at home and in a joint environment, and with my deployment experience and stuff like that. ...
“[The Warrior Games' role in my recovery] was absolutely crucial because when you separate yourself from the type of individuals that are in the program, you end up in your own bubble," Ferrell said."And when you do that, you start to forget about everybody else's problems that they're going through and all of their trials.
“I'm not healed. And there's still more to do on the recovery aspect, but the way that the sports kind of plugs in is actually being more active in training and in other ways to keep me active. I think that really helps me physically but also mentally, knowing I'm playing a sport and training for something sport specific, even though it's not rugby or not powerlifting, it's a different way that I still feel like I achieve the same outcome, physically and mentally.
