I love this story because she didnt just go directly from the womb to skating or biking she started later and it really gives me the confidence that its not too late to start.

"This beautiful thing called trying" 😍

One of our greatest athletes! She makes Canada proud with all she's accomplished!

@Martell364 5 жыл бұрын

It made me tear up (in a positive way), that even though she has won multiple olympic medals, for her, her most important accomplishment isn't that, but being an advocate for mental health.

I don't know if Clara will ever read my comment. If you do, Clara, I just want to thank you, truly, for having made yourself into who you are. You are a beautiful and powerful person; you are very inspirational because you wanted to do something with yourself although you did not have much, and did so. Thank you, Clara.

Life is not about being perfect, it is about trying, she is right. There is something beautiful about a struggling human being which is better than his her problems.

can you imagine getting to the national team and your team mates being like 'how long have you been skating?' 'only seven weeks' they would be so mad

"Don't hate the player, hate the game." All sports require varying degrees of skill and fitness. Something like Golf depends almost entirely on skill (hence why old, fat guys can win the masters) while sports like running, rowing and cross-country skiing lean heavily on fitness. While fitness is achieved through training, every individual has a "maximum fitness potential" limited by genetics, and some people just hit the genetic lottery. I always think of the story my Dad told me about his college friend Eric. During orientation, the Crew (i.e. "rowing team") coach told Eric he should try out for the team for the simple fact that he was an athletic 6'5". So Eric, despite having never rowed once in his life, ended up making the team, was rowing 1st boat by spring of freshman year (for a top-10 D-1 team), and in just four years went on to win a silver medal at the Olympics.

My favorite speedskater from another country. What a joy to watch her win gold the way she cheered made me cry. That someone could be so filled with joy gave me hope. And now that i see she is doing so many good things for mental health awareness and that she struggeled with it herself makes me understand my connection with her. What an amazing women!!!
