When and how did you get involved with Special Olympics?
Joined the speed skating program over 20 years ago recommended by a friend.

No. I went to St. Albert, Alberta and Thunder Bay, Ontario, for speed skating.

I was happy with three bronze (500m, 777m, 333m) and one silver in 1000m. I was happy with my results and aim to skate even better at National Games!

To train hard and to achieve personal best in all of my races.
What does competing at National Games mean to you?
A chance to represent B.C., and inspire and encourage my teammates.

Always learning new skills to become a better skater.

It's a great way to make new friends and have fun.
