It could be anybody's day. I'm going to keep an open mind. Hopefully, the 1,500 will go well. I think (the 1,000) was a good sign for the 1,500 ... I'm looking forward to it.

Growing up, you always dream of winning a gold medal. But coming into these Games, it wasn't something I was focused on. I'm just enjoying skating. This is the best season ever. I think that this year, my 3,000 meters has been stronger than the 1,500. The 1,500 has been anybody's race this year. When I was first, I still didn't know if that was enough.

I am honored to be selected as Canada's flag bearer for the closing ceremony of the 2006 Olympic Winter Games. Over the past 16 days we've had some outstanding performances by Canadian athletes and it is truly overwhelming to be selected as the flag bearer amidst the most successful Canadian Olympic Winter Games team ever.

The technique was something that was pretty hard to pick up and not something you just learn overnight.

Her and I have really pushed each other to new levels this season.

It's great to win a bronze medal, but I just want to focus on the next races coming up.
