Polina Edmunds

Polina Edmunds represents the kind of figure skating career I find quietly moving: a teenager from Santa Clara stepping onto the Olympic ice at Sochi while barely out of high school. Becoming a Four Continents champion and a two-time national silver medalist is no small thing, yet what interests me most is the resilience such early exposure demands. She did not become a household legend, but she competed against the world at an age when most are still finding themselves. I respect skaters who give everything to the sport and then move on with grace, and she strikes me as exactly that kind of athlete.
