I was a speed skater, that was my main sport; both roller and ice.

In the off season, I played hockey. Speed skating was physically and mentally challenging. Hockey was just SO much fun. I wish I would have started hockey at an earlier age, I would have stuck with it.

But I also played many of the usual sports. Baseball, football, swimming, track, cross country. Didn't much like baseball, just played because my grandmother loved baseball.

Main thing I loved about swimming was the early morning workouts. 2,000 yards before school started, always felt really good after that morning workout.
