This week I have the pleasure of bringing Canadian Olympian Gilmore Junio on the show.  Gil has been on the National Speed Skating Team for over 10 years. .An incredibly important message from this conversation came early when Gil talks about becoming a 24/7 athlete and the evolution of what that phrase has meant to him over his career.   In the beginning of his career it was about living and breathing speed skating.  As his career progressed he began to understand that every athlete is different and in order for him to be successful he needed to be able to take himself out of the sport from time to time. This allowed him to relax and be less hardcore which in turn allowed him to focus on simply improving every session instead of trying to go hard all the time. Once again I am very pleased to announce that this weeks episode is brought to you by PERFECT Sports Supplements. Their featured product this week is a thermogenic supplement called Burn Cycle!

Episode 63: Gilmore Junio {Become a 24/7 Athlete}

His speed on the Oval ought to be enough for everyone, but Gilmore Junio's big choices are what sets him apart for Canadian fans.  He seemed to embody everything good about the Olympian ideal in 2014, when Junio elected to give up his own qualifying spot to teammate Denny Morrison, in order that his friend could race for a medal. More recently, Junio's decision to take his training to Norway after years of working in the Canadian system raised eyebrows too. Gil's fine with that. The question now is what bold choices does the future hold?

Gilmore Junio, Speedskater,  on making big bold choices... and living with them.
