Tired of running on the treadmill instead of my usual neighborhood route. Made it about half a block and fell on my ass. I’m okay, but officially sick of winter.

“But all of this happening outside of skating life was affecting me, so I learned through sports psychology the way to block it. I have to go out there, tell the story, focus on my job, and whatever happens outside of skating is outside of it.”
