Written Option #3: Imagine that your player has been selected to participate in one of the above competitions. Tell us how you'd prepare and train for the challenge and/or tell us about how the competition went for you.

I like to think that skating is one of the stronger points of my game, while I may not be the fastest in the league by any means, I think that my technique and ability tyo deal with pressure would favor me in a fastest skating competition. I can typically be found around the big parm after practice is over working on my skating abilities with a parachute behind me giving me resistance. After even 10 minutes of doing sprints with the parachute on, you can feel the difference once it comes off. Between that and practicing my edge work as well as never skipping leg day in the gym, I think all the reasons above combined show why I would be one of the top contenders in a league wide fastest skater competition. I may not win, but I can be sure that I would be right near the top of the players chosen in the skills competition.
