About Darlene Magsino
Darlene Magsino is a frequent competitor in Donor Games events and consistently earns a place on the podium. Unlike many other Donor Games athletes, Darlene had never participated in fitness competitions or done CrossFit before joining her first Donor Games event, the Hawkins Workout 2020 Open, less than six months after her donation. Before becoming a donor, Darlene competed in the combat sport Muay Thai, as well as other forms of martial arts.
Donor Story: Darlene donated a kidney to her father in February of 2020. She had never considered being a donor until she began accompanying her dad to visit dialysis centers. She saw a small blurb about living donation on the back of a pamphlet and began researching online.
Personal: Darlene lives in Baltimore, Maryland, with her daughter, Maylea. She is a project manager for Perspire Sauna Studio. Besides CrossFit and martial arts, she enjoys reading, trying new foods and dancing.
