The Struggle I Went Through Has Value.

Ive Had So Many Experiences In Cycling, But In Some Ways I Have Nothing Left To Prove. I Have Achieved More Than I Could Have Dreamed Of, Ive Raced A Lot Longer Than I Thought I Would. I Know I Can Still Be Better, But I Just Dont Know If I Love It Enough Any More.

I Still Can't Believe I Won The Olympics. That's What I Feel Right Now - Completely Alive As A Human Being. It's A Really Beautiful Moment.

Sport That Consumed Me For Over Two Decades . . . Is Now Gone. Now It's Just Me. No Pressure, No Expectations, No Need To Be Fast, Good, Strong Or To Even Improve. Yet I Can't Let Go Of This Idea That I Always Need To Be More Than I Am. And It Is Eating Me Alive.

All The Physical Comes From The Mental.

I've Learned What It Truly Means To Be Canadian And In Turn I've Been Inspired To Make A Difference In The World, However Small It's Been.
