The Olympics Are Over, but Tessa Virtue Is Just Getting Started (looking back, one year post Pyeongchang Olympics): https://thewalrus.ca/the-olympics-are-o ... g-started/

Thanks Elizabeth. Very interesting read about life after Olympics. When your entire being is dedicated to a single goal, you've achieved that goal, what's next? And even more fundamentally, who am I now?

The article reminded me of a few skaters who have really struggled to move on. These days it is so difficult for athletes to succeed without devoting all their energy, physical and emotional, to their sport.

so true Judy. Hope you are well, Heini
