challenge consistent far felt good later physically respond season sign totally
Being this consistent is pretty big for me, ... I haven't felt totally on physically or technically so far this year. But I've still been able to respond to the challenge which is a really good sign for later in the season when I'll be at my best.
above amount income maybe medal medals money multiple poverty reasonable win
I think to get a reasonable amount of money that you can live on as an athlete, maybe an income that's above the poverty line, you pretty much have to win a medal at the Olympics, and preferably multiple medals at the Olympics.
bothers emphasis gets mostly
It bothers me a little. Mostly that so much more emphasis gets put on the Olympics.
built coming happy harder hold inner last speed today turn
I built a lot of speed coming out of the first turn and the last 300 was really solid, ... I had the last inner today which is usually the harder turn to hold and it went really smoothly. I was pretty happy with that.
fire last title won year
Kato won the world title last year and he's been on fire for awhile.
felt lost second speed
I think I must have just lost more speed than I thought on the second turn. If I think back on the race, that's the only part that really felt off in any way.
affected crossover difficult ease extremely faster final problem race rare skating time whether
I contemplated during the race whether I should ease up and re-skate but I was skating so well, ... It's extremely rare to a get a faster time on a re-skate. It's really difficult to know how much the crossover problem affected my final time.
available compete resources sure
You have to have a lot of resources available to be able to compete and to make sure you're maximizing your potential.
