I love to work out. I need to work out! Nothing makes me feel better than walking out of a spin or barre class knowing my body and mind got some attention.

I would say facing the obstacles surrounding the day-to-day pressures of an elite athlete at a very young age was not the easiest task. Learning to deal with the nerves and feeling the pressure of representing my country, all while wanting to achieve my own dreams, was a big obstacle to plow through.

I am very competitive, so when I fail I use what I learned from that mishap to fuel success.

I believe in myself and in Saint Therese.

As an athlete, everyone was always like, 'Listen to your body.' Whether it's an injury or whether it's just a nagging ache, that can affect your progress just because you think 'Oh, I'll push through it today' and then you can't work out for two weeks. I've learned that, as a skater, I'm very aware of that.

I can't even imagine what it's like and right now I'm like in shock, I can't believe that I'm Olympic Champion.

I love working out and when I'm home. I love the feeling of walking out of a class. That's just an addictive feeling for me.
