Spreading HOPE, unity and togetherness. This week American - Nigerian skeleton athlete @a_obiyoung traveled to Utah for a 2-day training camp. I worked with her on her skeleton start. April is working toward the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games for the country of Nigeria 🇳🇬.‬ Check her out... cheer her on and enjoy more Africans inspiring each other to compete in wintersport ❄️ 🛷 . - - - - - #teamafrica #teamgreen #africansinwintersport #ibsf #hopeofabillion #beijing2022 #africasfastestonice #bsfghana #bsfnigeria #africa #nigeria #ghana

#TeamGoals Yes Skeleton is an individual sport but like in any sport it does take a village to reach the very top. This group of people has been with me for the last couple years - some from the very beginning, some only for a year or 2 but all of them have tagged along for ups and downs already and play a key role in my process and development as an athlete + human. Time to shine a light on them! - Over the next 8 weeks (until the first worldcup race) I'll take the time to introduce all of these good looking people to you! Stay posted!😊 #lilbelgian #myarmy #squadgoals #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #sportersbelevenmeer #sportvlaanderen #teambelgium

This week it was announced that the 2021 @ibsfsliding World Championships were moved from our home track in Lake Placid, NY, to Altenberg, Germany, the track that hosted them last season. I have a love-hate relationship with Altenberg. The first time I raced there as a pilot in 2015 I won the race. The next few seasons after that Altenberg would cause me some headaches, a lot of drama, but also a lot of joy. I’ve medaled there, I’ve crashed there more times then I can count, but I also hold the start record there. One of my goals as a pilot was to win 3 World Championships on the 3 different German tracks and I thought I lost that opportunity missing last season because I was pregnant with Nico. Now I’ll have the opportunity to go for it! It won’t be easy, but it’ll be fun trying!!! Can’t think of a better challenge on my comeback from pregnancy! Here we go! @usabs @teamusa @andmother_org #comeback #athletemoms #postpartum #momgoals

Yesterday @ibsfsliding announced that the 2021 World Championships have been moved from Lake Placid USA to Altenberg Germany to protect athlete health and safety. As much as I was looking forward to a Lake Placid World Championships, Altenberg is a special track for me: • it's where I won my first World Cup medal 🥉 ..and we got to celebrate it with my parents who travelled from Canada to cheer us on! (2014/15) • it's where I first got to sing O'Canada from the top of the World Cup podium.. and with my first ever track record to boot! 🥇 (2015/16) • it's where I first had the pleasure of successfully defending World Cup gold 🥇 (2016/17) • and now, maybe it will also be home to my first ever World Championships as a bobsleigh pilot?!?? 🤞🤞🤞 (Guess we'll wait and see how this winter unfolds!) . . . #sleighallday #sleightheday #teamcanada #bobsleigh #bobsled #memories #thanksforthememories #worldchamps2021 #roadtotheolympics #altenberg #throwback #firsts

"Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of. You know whatever you do, they'll still be there." - Amy Li H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y 🎉 to the best-est sister!! 🤗 Here's to another year of adventure, camping trips, board games, memories and having me crash on your couch 😉 (thanks a million!)

Hold up, it's #WorldAfroDay 〰️➰➿ . Here's why this day is awesome and you should know what it is truly all about! 👇🏾 . A global day of change, education and celebration of Afro hair; endorsed by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human rights. (Ummm that's legit). Creates and organizes events to work with families, schools and authorities to tackle discrimination against Afro hair.  . World Afro Day is part of a movement towards positivity in the black and mixed-race community and it all centers around the afro, a cultural symbol that’s been part of history for hundreds of years. By removing the biases associated with the afro, this day is all about making the afro beautiful and accepted. . Although I have always rocked my natural hair, I didn't always have pride and acceptance of it nor appreciate it's absolute beauty 😥 (I was trippin). Fortunately I have parents that always taught me how to love, accept, nurture and be proud of my body and mixed races and all the unique beautiful features that come with it. The outside world wasn't always so kind nor embracing. . Happy that there is a day to celebrate just another part of individuals uniqueness and historical culture providing tools to educate and remove bias/discrimination. Proud and Honored Afro 👸🏾 for life 💁🏾‍♀️ . . . 📸: @jamesfarrellphoto 👩🏾‍🎤💇🏾‍♀️: @whatischristie #worldfroday #rockyourafro #rockyourcurls #embraceyourbeauty #fortheculture #enddiscrimination #educate #mixed #multicultural #afrohair #curly #curls #curlygirl #photooftheday #throwback #bigchop #3c #4a #hair #beauty #model #athlete #olympian

The 2020/2021 IBSF World Cup season schedule has been released! The lads and myself are really fired up to get things started and show the world what we've been working on. Now the schedule is out we now know what we're working towards! Just look how excited their little faces are 😍 . . . . . #bobsleigh #bobsled #greatbritain #season #schedule #winteriscoming #weareready

Repost: @cbcolympics Team Kripps motto since March has been ‘Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready.’ We’ve had plenty of challenges this off season and there are more to come, but we’re ready for anything. Just fingers crossed we can come home for Christmas and don’t have to stay in Europe/China the whole five months! #teamkripps #bobsleigh #thesweatlife @bentenspeed @tombstones @ryansoms @lululemonmen @purevitalabs @b2ten @rbc #rbcolympian @teamcanada

Roaaddd trriippp! 🚘🌵 When life hands you poor air quality and low visibility on the day you planned to catch up and hit the mountains.. go canyon walking instead! Unfortunately we did not find any fossils or dinosaur bones ☠🦖 despite this area being known as "the dinosaur capital of the world" but we were too busy catching up, taking in the views and having a good time to turn over every single rock! 🙃 . . . DYK: Drumheller is approx the same distance from Calgary as the mountains! It's so cool how this province literally has everything from mountains to badlands in the space of a few mere hours of driving time 😊 . #sleighallday #sleightheday #hikealberta #travelalberta #myalberta #albertagirl #travelcanada #crosstraining #dayhike #daytrip #drumheller #hoodoos #canyons #roadtrip #southernalberta #badlands #friends #catchup #yyc #yychike #yycdaytrip #outdoorgirl #outdoorliving

1 year ago today I married the man I hoped, wished and prayed for. The day was perfect. true to life things didn’t go totally as planned, but that made it special. together as an official couple & much larger family we made the day our own. We had people come & support us from Canada, USA, Germany & The U.K. some we have known our whole lives, others meeting for the first time. Family and friends made the day unbelievable. The ceremony was at St.Francis chapel in Balboa park (SanDiego), with the reception at a friends house in Rancho Santa Fe. Everyone pitched In from set up to tear down, team effort. Things we didn’t expect: The night before my bridal bouquet arrived the wrong size....a few people & bridal party got lost on the way to the chapel...our first dance was surprisingly cut in half by the DJ after we rehearsed our routine for months....and shortly before I had to announce to the world I needed a career change. Overall It was the best day though,I wouldn’t change a single thing about it. We had so many perfect moments. My sister in law fixed the bouquet.... the bridal party made the ceremony 10 mins before showtime...we got to showcase our “first dance” two times (making it twice as special). everyone watched it all over again like they had never seen it before.....tears got shed but @travis_the_trainer_ was rock solid & held me tight. Family & friends never let us loose focus on what was being created from this day forward. I learned together we could face anything. One of my proudest life moments is marry him September 14th,2019. The speeches from the family were heartwarming. Grandpa sang the Lord’s Prayer. Pool parties, family time before/after, a baseball game made it into a week event filled with memories. Life didn’t stop for our special day, it kept showing us just how compatible we truly are. we made it our own day & celebrated like we didn’t have a care in the world. Fun is an understatement. I look forward to a lifetime together with @travis_the_trainer_ ,He completes me in so many ways. Happy 1 year wedding anniversary baby! : : #marriage #marriedlife #husbandandwife #togetherforever #happilyeverarmbruster #1year #bestdayever #love

Monster of a track session today got straight home into my recovery boots (thank you @sportsphysioirl for all your help) and took a nap 😴😂😂 had good fun tho a lot of personal milestones being passed lately. 💣☘️ #beijing2022 #sprinting #drills #speeddrills #speed #sprinting #acceleration #sledpull #resistanceworkout #irishfitfam #fitness #training #track #trackandfield #hardwork #goalsetting #irish #dublin #running #run

@purevitalabs powering another hard training week for me. Every morning before I leave I take both of these for focus and energy. The devil is in the details - I love how this stack has taurine, tyrosine and lions mane with no caffeine to work around, meaning I can enjoy my morning espresso without overdoing it! #poweredbypvl #training #bobsleigh #fuel #supplements #informedchoice #teamcanada

2 more weeks until the next trainingcamp ❄️🤩 happy Monday! 😊 #ice #happypushing #run #work #skeleton #winteriscoming #season2021

It's grandparents day!!! Grab your Oma or Opa, hold them tight and tell them you love them ❤❤❤ I cannot even begin to describe how greatful I am for these four. I am beyond blessed by their love, their care, their example, their character and the legacy they continue to build for our family. It was the ultimate summer treat getting to spend a little extra time with them this summer while home on the farm 🍦🌼 . . . #beyondblessed #sleighallday #sleightheday #heritage #grandparents #grandparentsday #grateful #family #myfamily

On a scale of 1-10 : how cliché is it to wear a plaid jacket and mountain necklace while hiking? 🏞🥾 (asking for a friend 😉 ) . . . . . PS. Grotto Canyon was a quick, easy hike (perfect for an active recovery workout!) and only a hour from Calgary. If you are looking for a family friendly or more casual hike be sure to add it to your list! . #sleighallday #sleightheday #activerecovery #crosstraining #exploring #myalberta #rockymountains #grottocanyon #daytrip #rockymountaingirl #hikealberta #hikecanada #hikecanmore #getoutside #explorealberta #travelalberta #travelcanada #explorecanada #albertaadventuregirls #athlete #weekend

Cheers to you Mom 🍷!! Today, my mom would have turned 59 years old. Sadly, she lost her battle against Breast Cancer in June of 2017. My life and my family’s lives have not been the same without her. She was a light like no other. She sacrificed so much for her three daughters and provided us with so much opportunity. Today, I’m saddened by what she has missed in the short three years she’s been gone. She did not get the chance to meet her granddaughter Elle who in many ways is just like her, a light in our lives. She did not get a chance to see me compete at the Olympics, a dream she and I shared together. My sister finishing her degree and me getting accepted into a Masters program. We owe all our success to her, yet we can’t share it with her. It’s been a mental battle, and it’s taken me three years to open up about loosing the most important person in my life, my mom. I miss you so much. HAPPY (what would have been) 59th Birthday. Photo was taken in April of that year, she had a great month before the beginning of her decline ❤️

I am proud of the woman I am today, because I went through one hell of a time becoming her. . . #beyourself #loveyourself #beautyisintheeyeofthebeholder #differencesarebeautiful #confidence #positivevibes #shinebright #unique #tattoos #tattooed #sleevetattoo #nomakeup
