Summary
"I hadn't skated in Winnipeg for a couple of years but there's so many of us on the team from Winnipeg that we talk about it and we joke about it all the time," [BRITTANY Schussler] said from Calgary. "Right before Christmas, I was in town for a friend's wedding and I skated one day out at Sargent Park.
"Some of us hang out," [Cindy Klassen] said. "We all do have a sense of pride that we're from Manitoba. That's pretty important to us and we do like to joke around about how we skated outdoors in the cold weather and how that made us tougher.""This year, being able to be a little bit more in the mix with results at World Cups is an eye-opener because so much of the time, there's half a second between a fifth place and a 15th place. So it's really close and it's really far away all at the same time and I think I just have to keep plugging away at being optimistic."See the full content of this document
