A recent article in Sports Illustrated calls JR Celski America’s “best hope” to win the men’s speed skating medal in Sochi.
The Filipino American enters this year’s Olympics with a “rekindled passion” for the sports after winning two bronze medals at the Vancouver games, according to the story.
“I took a year off after Vancouver to reestablish my goals and my mindset,” Celski said. “I had to really force myself back on the ice. The love was there but it wasn’t nearly as much as it is right now. I think after I started getting back into a routine and traveling internationally and competing and getting results, I’ve been able to reestablish that love that I have for skating.”
