Heather Moyse

So of course, in the bobsled, you are bent over the whole time. So as soon as I get out there, of course, ripping off my helmet, ready to throw up, the media, all the cameras right there getting out of the sled. It probably wasn't the smoothest of experiences.

But to show you how ignorant I was with the sport, we were going down for the, I don't know if it was the second or third run we were doing. And while we're just waiting at the top of the track, my driver turned around and she said, oh, Heather, you forgot to do up your helmet. And I said, oh my gosh, we're supposed to do up our helmets. Like what? And she goes, what?

So the first couple of runs I had done, I hadn't done up my helmet. And she was like, why would you think you don't have to do up your helmet? And I said, well, everything we had done indoors in the ice house, you just throw on a helmet because you're, it's just rules, but you're not going down a track or you're not picking up speed. So I, I had no idea. That crashes actually happened.

I thought it was just about figuring out how fast you could go down. I really wasn't thinking about crashing. I wasn't thinking about, yeah, I mean, I'm very lucky that nothing happened on those first couple of runs, but I was, that's how, that's how green I was.

That's how I knew nothing about the sport and it's yeah, that's a bit, probably something I probably shouldn't admit to people that I didn't have a helmet in that, but I didn't.

I feel a sense of accomplishment. I find a sense of accomplishment sometimes when I prove people wrong or prove that something can be done that people thought couldn't happen. But I also, I am proud of all of those. The problem with the fourth place finish is not that it was fourth. I was quite happy.

I'm pleased with what we had done at fourth, but I was very confused because that's the first race that my driver and I had done that season that we did not medal in against the same people. So to me, that wasn't necessarily a sense of accomplishment. I mean, in the big picture, yes, five months of my life training and learning a new sport, fourth at the Olympics is not too shabby.

And that's what I chalked it up as and whatever. But then three years later, leading into the Vancouver Olympics, like the summer before the Vancouver Olympics, they started airing these commercials, these about Believe, because that was the theme of the Vancouver Olympics, Believe. And so they were having all this
