Tania Myrans is a 27 years old CPA athlete who has been competing in women’s figure for a little under a year. Having a passion for fitness and supported by her coach Nicho Vlachos at Big Daddy Fitness, Tania's first competition took place in May 2019 where she finished 2nd at the Mimi Capes Classic. Known as a fierce competitor and determined to improve on her overall performance, Tania’s hard work and personal discipline was rewarded in October 2019 when she placed 3rd at Canadian National pro qualifier in Toronto Ontario. Taking into consideration the personal sacrifices, long term commitment and competitive challenges that goes into winning a CPA championship or title, Tania unfortunately finds herself in a different type of challenge, the fight against Covid-19. As a registered nurse currently working at the CHUM hospital in Montreal Québec, Tania is an surgical first line responder responsible for supporting and training medical staff on how to fight and overcome this pandemic. Not only is Tania a role model for her family and friends but also an inspiration to all of us who have been affected by Covid-19. Her selfless actions are a true representation of the CPA community and others just like her. The CPA and other athletes would like to take this time and opportunity to recognize Tania and say how proud we are. Keep 22 fighting and we will see you and other competitors on stage soon!
