positivity winning journey
If I have given my all and still do not win, I haven't lost. Others might remember winning or losing; I remember the journey.
nice italian men
All the suits I buy have to be tailored, no matter what. But it's not just because of my height; it's because I've been skating for so long. My waist is very small, but my legs are just huge. Most really nice suit makers are Italian, and usually they make suit pants for Italian men. I'm like, 'Those Italians must have pretty skinny legs.'
weight legs skating
With speed skating, it's like doing one-legged squats over and over again, with that one leg absorbing more than 80 percent of your weight. It takes an enormous amount of strength, and you're in such a weird position.
who-cares care ifs
Who cares if somebody dances better? Doing my very best is rewarding internally.
sports dad father
If it wasn't for my sport and my father, I'd probably be a fallen statistic. I'd be dead; I'd be in jail. Luckily, I had a great dad in my life.
athlete work-out schedules
I've been an athlete most of my life and on a disciplined schedule. Working out for me is just part of my every day.
character games personality
I've always liked game shows - the competitive aspect and the character-driven personalities you see.
avid age swimmer
I was an avid swimmer and was state champ at age 12.
believe commitment thinking
I think that Subway has shown their own personal commitment as a company and how they believe in healthy choices.
running kind muscles
I tend to build bulk and muscle easily, and running seems to make sure I stay kind of stringy, if that makes sense.
ice elements knows
I know exactly what I'm doing on the ice, and I'm in my element.
focus body muscles
I could never focus on my upper body as a skater, so I'm enjoying having symmetrical upper and lower body muscle.
father believe path
I believe my father has and always will be the strongest influence in my life, as he has guided me on many paths.
running littles speed
Generally, speed skaters don't run that much. I'm a little bit of an exception in that I run a lot.
