DAY 14 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19TH
KAILLIE HUMPHRIES
Born: 09/04/1985 (Calgary, AB)
Sport: Bobsleigh
Sometimes when one door closes, a better one swings open. When Kaillie
was 16, she realized that she wasn’t a fast enough downhill skier to make
her Olympic dream come true. Instead of letting that stop her, she tried
bobsleigh. Her switch in sports proved golden, as she and her partner,
Heather Moyse, went on to win the Olympic gold in Vancouver. Watch for
her and Chelsea Valois, as they sled for the medals in Sochi.
JOURNAL ACTIVITY
Write a story (true or fiction) about a time when plans changed unexpectedly, and it worked out for the best.
