Quote by Gary Mack

“As Peggy Fleming, the former Olympic champion figure skater, said, the most important thing is to love your sport. Never compete just to please someone else. “You’ve got to love what you’re doing,” hockey great Gordie Howe said. “If you love it, you can overcome any handicap or the soreness or all the aches and pains.”

The road to a more just and equitable world begins with listening to pain. [Megan Devine, Foreward]”
