Passion Struck with John R. Miles
Vincent Zhou on How to Make Your Gold Medal Dreams a Reality | 588

I just remember the feeling of stepping on the ice and not knowing what I was doing there. And that's a really scary feeling because when you've been passion struck your whole life and all of a sudden you step into the familiar arena, but you feel nothing. You feel nothing. It's terrifying. It feels like you question everything. You don't know what's happening. You don't know why it's happening.

you realize it's probably up here, but you start trying to find physical reasons to turn it around because that's something you can tangibly change in the moment. But at the end of the day, that's the wrong reason. So you end up seeding more doubt and more doubt into your mind. It's just a negative spiral.

I was a really competitive kid. I had to win at everything. If you put me at the starting line of a race, I would cry if I didn't reach the finish line first. If you put me on a soccer field, I would try my dang hardest to score all the goals against the boys who were twice as old and twice as large as me.

I had a lot of fun at the local ice rink, outdoor ice rink. There was this bubble machine that would blow bubbles. It was all whimsical and there'd be jolly music playing. And I just remember racing with my friend Alper from elementary school and trying so hard to win. Next thing, my mom signed me up for group lessons and off I went.

Well, every jump lands backwards. So you learn that very early on. If you land forward, there's a huge toe pick there that typically tends to stop your stop your motion. If you land on it, landing forward would probably result in some really unfortunate accidents. We learn very on usually the hard way not to land forwards.
