Look who got a new logo! Things are going to look a little different on the podium for us from here on in. #FasterForward with @ssc_pvc! I was fortunate enough to be a part of the group that provided @willcreativeinc with our identity as an organization. What they did with that turned out amazing! Excited to wear this logo around the world representing our speed skating community and Team Canada. 📸: @pieterstoffel

Got a head start just to post late therefore making me right on time. From an excuse to grow a moustache with the boys to something a little more personal, Movember has been changing the face of men’s health - prostate and testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. I’ve been rocking the beard for the last couple of months but I’m now committed to the ‘stache. I might get chirped for not starting from scratch but I’m here for the same goal. Help me support a great cause and let’s change the face of men’s health! Link in bio. #movember #moustaches #mobro

500m CANADIAN CHAMPION! The celebration and look of relief speaks to how much this race meant to me. It’s been 9 years competing against some great skaters and I was FINALLY able to get a win here. Shoutout to @laurent_dubreuil and @alexboisvertlacroix for some great races, these guys are legit and there is a lot to be excited about! Massive thank you to Mawer and Aucerna for their support leading into this moment. Proud to represent you guys when I step to the line. 🎥: @theolympicoval, 📸: @davehollandpics #schaatsen #speedskating #teamcanada #W

Very excited to finally unveil my 2019/2020 @descente_global 🇨🇦 skin suit! Not only am I proud to represent @ssc_pvc and the rest of Canada, but I’m honoured to be partnered with two great companies in Mawer and Aucerna. They have been great partners over the years and I’m so grateful for their continued support. This is all just in time for our Canadian Championships happening this Thursday at @theolympicoval. I race the 500m on Friday with races starting at 1:30 pm. I also race the 1000m on Saturday, 2:15 pm but, you know... 1000s. Come out, cheer loud and watch the best in Canada skate really, really, really, really fast! 📸: @nicolas_hiller #schaatsen #speedskating #skating

My favourite end-of-practice game to play growing up was Torpedo! Objective: Get from one end of the rink to the other without getting hit. Get hit, you’re out and you get to throw at the remaining skaters. It was agility, blade control, speed, body awareness but mostly it was just FUN! Thank you @yycspeed for having me out on the ice with the kids and giving me a chance to relive a bit of my childhood. These are the moments that make me love the sport 😌

Through 29 years I’ve always said “surround yourself with good people”. I was lucky enough to spend the August long weekend with a couple of the best of them!

⚫️&🔵, 🇨🇦&🇳🇴. Tussen takk @sprintlandslaget for an awesome couple weeks of training! I had flashbacks to my tenure working with Norway and it was great to train and hang out with crew again, new and old. See you all soon! We’ll bring the Spikeball net 😏. 📸: @pieterstoffel #aucerna #schaatsen #speedskating #training #team

New season calls for some new boots! Got those @nhlflames colours and repping #yyc on the skates courtesy of @truespeedskates. Pretty stoked with how they turned out and looking forward to spending more time in these! 📸: @nicolas_hiller #truespeedskates @evoskates #schaatsen #speedskating #summertraining

Happy #internationalyogaday! Here’s a shot of me in my favourite yoga pose, shavasana. Also known as corpse pose, also known as Gilmore goes night-night. Yoga has taught me a lot. Contrary to what some might believe, I was a loose cannon back in the day, breaking my hand on several occasions after bad races or unwelcome outcomes. Wasn’t until I started practicing yoga did I learn to let go and let myself be in the moment, albeit an ongoing process. I’ll admit, it was intimidating at first but you can learn a lot about yourself if you let it, so hit the mat! #fbf to unbelievable three days at @lululemon #ambassadorsummit2016! 📸: @jordanjunck #thesweatlife #ambassadorlove @lululemonmen
