Episode 53 - Charles Hamelin Interview

Off The Podium - An Olympics Podcast - A podcast by Ben Waterworth, Colin Hilding & Jarrod Loobeek - Thursdays

We return to Canada today to talk to one of the greatest Canadian athletes from the exciting sport of short track speed skating, Charles Hamelin! A 3 time Olympian, 4 time medalist, including 3 gold medals, Charles takes us through his Olympic journeys from Torino to Vancouver to Sochi, as well as how things are shaping up for next year in Pyeongchang, including whether or not it will be his final Olympic appearance. Charles also tells us the story winning back to back medals within 35 minutes of each other, filming his famous Sport Chek commercial, and where his Olympic medals are kept to this day. Of course as always we go over our famous "I Am Canadian" set of questions.
