Born: 05/12/1987 (Calgary, AB)
Sport: Luge
Alex entered the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games as a medal
favourite for the women’s luge. However, things didn’t work out as
planned. When the organizers changed the course to make it safer, it
threw her off her game. Race day was a heartbreak. But this has made
Alex hungrier to prove that she is the best in the world. She goes to Sochi
as a World Championship medalist and a podium favourite.
JOURNAL ACTIVITY
Like Alex, sometimes things don’t go according to plan and we don’t perform as well as we thought we would at sports, the arts or school. Write about a time that this happened to you and how you didn’t quit. Draw and colour a picture of the story.
