olympic inspiration

 

So much inspiration from Team Canada in Beijing yesterday. Congratulations to all our medal winners: to Max Parrot who has recovered from Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, on his gold medal in men’s Slopestyle and to Mark McMorris on receiving bronze; to Kim Boutin, on her bronze medal in the women’s 500m short track speed skating ; and to Mackenzie Boyd-Clowes, Alexandria Loutitt, Matthew Soukup and Abigail Strate all winning bronze in the Olympic debut of mixed team Ski Jumping.

Olympic moments however are not only just about winning medals. After Justine Dufour-Lapointe fell on her mogul run seeing her comforted by her sister Chloe was inspiring and golden in every way, as are the words she has written on Instagram at @justinedufourlapointe Read them and be inspired by this great Canadian athlete and role model.
