“Jenny Simpson loses her shoe in the women's fifteen hundred, with a lap and a half to go, destroying her chances to repeat as world champion, and she gives the most gracious interview afterward about how she's had a wonderful career already.

“When she (my mother) passed away, I kind of understood the commitment that she made to make sure that I could stay in skating. And I wanted to live up to whatever I could. Not so much win everything, but just to be the best that I could possibly be, to honor her memory and everything she went through to make sure that I was given the opportunities to be the best that I can be. Not to be a world champion or an Olympic gold medalist, but to be the best that I could be. And that was the most important thing that ever happened in my career.” WorldKindMadeI CanImportantWantedMotherOpportunityWinningGivenMemoriesCareersHappenedHonorUnderstoodCommitmentGoldImportant ThingsChampionBeing The BestSkatingPassed AwayWorld ChampionsMother Passed Away Author:Theodore Roosevelt
