My goals for the 2007 Canada Winter Games
My goals are to get personal bests in all distances and to win a medal in the relay.
My personal role model
My personal role models are my cousins Denny and Jay Morrison. They are both on the National Long Track Speed Skating Team. Denny won a silver medal in Torino in the Men's pursuit.
Other information that could be of interest to the media
I started speed skating nine years ago after watching my cousin Denny Morrison skate at the Canadian Age Class Short Track Championships in Waterloo, Ontario. I hope to go to Calgary to the training centre, when I am finished high school.
