North Texan Hopes to Represent Puerto Rico at Olympics --

“I got an amazing opportunity to move to Puerto Rico and represent them. They're trying to build up a winter federation of their own,” Delka explained. She has lived full-time in Puerto Rico for several years.

Competing for a small nation has been challenging. “I'm driving across Europe by myself. I'm booking my flights, my hotels, my cars. I'm driving to races alone. It's a different experience. I don't really have a team camaraderie,” Delka said.“Luckily, I have a beautiful beach to run on, so I can't complain too much,” she joked.

Family and friends back in North Texas have continued to support Delka’s Olympic journey, especially financially. Without them, she says he couldn’t have gotten this far in the sport. “There's so many people that have been so kind to me and helped me.” In just a matter of weeks, Delka hopes to prove that it has all been worth it.
