Indiana Middle School student Alyssa Candiano is becoming a cross country running sensation, and she’s legally blind

as reported by WGN9 Chicago




A Hobart, Indiana Middle School student is achieving what may seem to be the impossible.
Alyssa Candiano is becoming a cross country running sensation, but (and*) she’s legally blind. Her success is thanks in part to high school athlete Hayley Collins.
The two young ladies are proving anything is possible with the right amount of determination, and a positive attitude.
Alyssa and Haley are two of Chicago’s Very Own.
