once when i was on a public session in the early days of my adult skating career, there was a school group also on the ice and a young (10 or 11 year old) girl came up and asked me, "are you some kind of athlete or somethin'?" i was about to be all self-deprecating, but instead i smiled and said, "yeah." so now when i'm on public, even (especially) if i'm not doing so great, i say to myself, "at least one person out here thinks you are an athlete."
