Alongside a very happy Maxime Laune,
a silver medal to start the season, I just described this.
I think it's amazing, like with the summer, everything I didn't expect,
like nothing out of this competition,
I just wanted to have fun, skate, relax,
show what I can do like in practice and just like think of every move,
like use my experience in the races
and it really paid off so pretty happy about it.
You are skating with such poise and such maturity,
we talked about that when you were warming up,
how nice is it to be this free at this point
of your career it's just amazing like i never
understood people that told me that like
when i was younger and now i just understand like
you know at the summer i was training
but like every practice i took it like more in quality
than just quantity like before
and then i was like i'm taking four classes at school like played
golf and everything and i was just like you know what make
the most of it like just be free have
fun and honestly i'm skating better than
when i was more in shape so i'll continue to do that
Hey, one last quick one.
I read some of your quotes from earlier this week, Media Day,
saying you were contemplating your future in the sport,
and now to have this must feel sweet.
Yeah, it's pretty amazing.
I think I've dealt with a lot of injury.
Every time I was not able to do what I wanted on the ice,
so to be finally back on the podium,
it's pretty amazing, and I'm happy.
Yeah, I feel great today.
Well done, Max.
Thank you.
