See Jeff Skate (Day 2)
I made my way back to the Richmond Olympic Oval to watch Jeff skate in the 1500 m event.
It's his last event in this season's Canadian Single Distance Championships.
Very impressive building...
I just had to get a shot of this. I was so puzzled after I saw this yesterday.
Is this sign for dogs to read? I just don't get it. You'd think that not drinking toilet water is a given to most people, but I guess not at this place. Just weird, I tell you.
Some more shots of this beautiful place...
There was an even bigger group today to watch Jeff skate!
That's Kelsey passing by.
That's Shannon Rempel on the left and Brittany Schussler on the right.
Clara Hughes racing now!
Kelsey warming down...
The arrival of Josh...
He must be a "Yes Man"!
Cleaning the ice after the women's race...
Jeff's younger brother, Wesley...
The women medal recipients of the 1500 m event.
1st Place: Christine Nesbitt, 2nd Place: Shannon Rempel, and 3rd Place: Brittany Schussler...
These girls finished in the same spot yesterday!
I love it when they share the top of the podium.
Carla arrived just in time to watch Jeff skate.
There he goes!Jeff is our homeboy!!! Just watch this little video.
Jeff clocked in at 1:50.56.
He finished 7th in this event!
A shot of his bubble butt again...
Jeff on the bench...
1st Place: Denny Morrison, 2nd Place: Lucas Makowsky, and 3rd Place: Steven Elm...
Jeff came out after to greet his adoring crowd.
Father and son...
Mother and son...
A lot of family and friends came out to see him today!
A big hug from his fiance, Edita...
LOL! She hates it when I take these photos.
One last shot with the man before he flies back home...
Jeff with Edita's clan...
Jeff with his brother, Wes...
There's Phil!
One more hug...
I bumped into Alex on the way out! The last time I saw this guy was when I was helping Phil and him shop for fixies in the city last summer. All the best to you guys!!!
