□ Des petites nouvelles! Actuellement en hibernation □ chez moi... Je tenais à vous informer que j’étais encore asymptomatique donc que ma santé se portait à merveille. Encore quelques jours de patience avant le prochain test que j’espère négatif afin de pouvoir refouler les pistes... Prenez soin de vous! □ #unity #exceedexpectations #covid_19

Talk about opening up new sponsor categories!

I’ve always believed in going for your dream. Being an olympic speed skater, I know that dreams can become reality. It’s taken blood, sweat and tears, but I got there □ For some, the biggest dream of all is to become a parent. That’s where my new sponsor, @europeanspermbank , comes in. European Sperm Bank helps women and couples fulfil their dream of becoming parents. They do that by recruiting sperm donors and making sure that donors are healthy. But sperm donation is still surrounded by a lot of taboos. As an ambassador for European Sperm Bank, I’ll help spread awareness of the important work that sperm donors do. Can't wait to bust some myths while I crush some ice❗️ #skating #speedskating #urbanskating #patinaje #patincarrera #skeeleren #rulleskøjter #streetskate #inline #skaterlife #inlinespeedskating

Poranne rozciąganie?! Szalenstwo czy metoda na lepsze samopoczucie ? Poranne rozciąganie, to pierwsza czynność każdego szanującego się kota. Zapytasz zapewne "czy to dla mnie ?". Zdecydowanie tak. 5-10 min porannego rozciągania znacznie poprawi twoje samopoczucie na cały dzień. Piszesz się? A może wyzwanie ? @lekarze.dla.przedszkolakow #ruchjestlekiem #bieganie #rozciąganie #poranek #leki

Familiares e amigos É com muito amor que viemos contar a vocês que nos casamos dia 15 de agosto de 2020. Não se assustem, realizamos uma cerimônia simbólica só entre nós duas na praia da Armação em Ilha Bela. Parece loucura? Parece, mas foi a única maneira que encontramos no momento de realizar esse sonho. Sabemos que por conta do cenário atual não poderiam se fazer presentes físicamente para brindar esse momento conosco, mas fiquem tranquilos que sentimos a presença de cada um de vocês em nossos corações. Ainda iremos celebrar essa união juntos em uma data oportuna quando tudo isso tiver passado, pois dias melhores virão. Amamos vocês ❤️ Com carinho, Ana e Cris.
