The Struggle I Went Through Has Value.

I'm Trying To Let Winning The World Championships Settle In Right Now Before I Begin Training Again Shortly. During The Skating Season, We Skate On Average 20 Kilometres A Day. On Top Of That, We're Riding A Lot And Lifting A Lot Of Weights.

My Goal Is To Try To Avoid A Regular Job.

Sport That Consumed Me For Over Two Decades . . . Is Now Gone. Now It's Just Me. No Pressure, No Expectations, No Need To Be Fast, Good, Strong Or To Even Improve. Yet I Can't Let Go Of This Idea That I Always Need To Be More Than I Am. And It Is Eating Me Alive.

What I Have To Do Now Is Figure Where My Passion Is, And Follow My Heart; I've Proven That If I Have The Passion For Something Then I Can Succeed. I Haven't Been Listening To My Heart In The Last Little While.

I'll Skate On Concrete If I Have To. I'm Not Worried About How Fast The Ice Is. I'm Worried About How Fast I Can Go On The Ice.
