Clara Hugues says goodbye with Bronze

It was her last laps on the speed skating world and she made it wonderful. With all the competition on that day, she managed to finish third, on the podium with a bunch of Kids. What a beautiful way to end a career that it’s quite spectacular. It was a sixth Olympic medal in 5 Olympics, first one in 1996 to summer game in Atlanta.

Clara is an impressive woman and got a heart of gold. What a great athlete she was!!! Her determination and compassion for other make her quite special. I will honor her career in an entry quite soon.
