79 Jorrit Bergsma – Speed skating Olympic Champion

This week we learn from Jorrit Bergsma, the 10,000 metres speed skating Olympic Champion. Following our interview with Jan Blokhuijsen in episode 75, Jorrit gives his side of the story on why he withdrew as the Dutch substitute for the Team Pursuit at the 2014 Olympics. The three-time World Champion shares stories of his childhood, growing up on a houseboat in Friesland, in the north of the Netherlands. Bergsma reveals how close he came to representing Kazakhstan at the 2010 Olympics. He also talks about being married to a fellow speed skater, the four-time World Champion Heather Richardson-Bergsma.
